REAL RESULTS – SYSTEMS
Turnaround of a failing Workday Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) project and increasing adoption through systematic organization change management.
-
- In its attempts to meet key business needs, the organization procured the Workday ERP system.
- The implementation was planned with a budget of $3.5 million.
- After 9 months of work, the project had barely progressed, incurring $800,000+ in project management costs alone.
- Assessment of the project showed substantial miscalculations in: (a) scope of work, (b) resource alignment and (c) project execution.
- Project was extended, the right amount of resources were aligned to the needs of the effort and disciplined agile development yielded a successful implementation.
- Major organization change management contributed to transitioning 3,000+ staff to new ways of doing business.
- The true benefits of the transformation showed in two years, with over 900% gained efficiencies and cost savings compared to the prior state.
