CHANGE IS A JOURNEY:

The Legend of Ulixes
SYSTEM IMPLEMENTATION

It is common knowledge that many large scale system deployments do not achieve targeted business results due to poor adoption of the intended changes. Key factors for failure mentioned in most publications and our experience are:

  • Poorly defined business requirements and unclear vision of the end state
  • Insufficient business involvement and sponsorship
  • Users don’t understand the value of the solution, are ill-prepared and unwilling to adopt  the changes
  • Technology focus rather than business outcome focus

Ulixes Consulting has deep experience in supporting  the following System Implementation (SI) scenarios:

Setting up a new SI project

  • Support the development of the governance structure together with the PMO and Leadership Team
  • Create a Change Management plan and approach
  • Support the development of the business ROI and create an Adoption Metrics approach based on it

  • Deploy our "SI Program Health Check" tool to identify areas for improvement
  • Develop a short and long term plan to ensure delivery of business value and ROI
  • Align the program team and external stakeholders to ensure buy in on the improvement plan

Accelerate Adoption, Business Value and ROI
