    • Implementation Methodology

    • Project Resourcing

    • Issue Management

    • Knowledge Transfer/Training

  • Software:  Inexpensive software is expensive.
  • Project Methodology :  Enterprise class software isn't plug and play. Implementation methodology - Define, Design, Build, Test, Deploy - matters. Some stages more than others.
  • Project Resourcing :  Projects without SME's (Subject Matter Experts) are designed and destined for failure.
  • Issue Management: Issue management is about people management.  Left unmanaged, important issues become urgent issues. 
  • Training :  Inadequately trained end-users means successfully executed and delivered projects quickly become short term failures.
