Understand the impact of changes in
business practices.

Get the initial set up right…if it isn’t going
as expected stop what you are doing.
• Don’t think you can fix it later.
Make sure you have enough resources to
implement the software.
• Expect it will take more than you may have planned.
Don’t let issues slide or go unaddressed.
• Communicate regularly to your project manager and your vendor’s project manager to resolve the issues.
