Evidence-based. Cutover-focused. Designed for executive Go/No-Go decisions.

THE HIGH-STAKES CHALLENGE

Why Go-Lives Fail

Most failures happen during cutover

Technical migration and business continuity compressed into a narrow, unforgiving window

Siloed teams create hidden risks at the seams

Integration dependencies and cross-team handoffs become visible only when it's too late

Unstructured support leads to chaos in week-1

Without clear escalation paths and command center discipline, small issues cascade

Programs rarely fail due to function alone. They fail at the seams. Cutover compresses technical migration and business continuity into a narrow, unforgiving window.

WHAT WE DELIVER

Two Complementary Solutions

Solution 1: Go-Live Readiness Audits

  • Evidence-based health check across readiness domains
  • Laser focus on cutover control: rehearsal proof, timing baseline, rollback criteria
  • Clear Go/No-Go recommendation with a prioritized remediation backlog

Solution 2: Business Integration Management (BIMO)

  • Central "air traffic controller" for cross-team dependencies and communication
  • Governs cross-team decisions via documented impact assessment
  • Delivers predictable release stability through integrated test readiness and cutover dependency control
SERVICE 1A

EWM Go-Live Readiness Audit (Cutover-first)

Prevent week-1 disruptions: audit-proof readiness, cutover discipline, and operational stability for SAP EWM go-lives.

Cutover Controls: Minimum Evidence We Expect

Master cutover runbook with critical path, owners, and timed sequence (day-0/day-1)
At least one dress rehearsal with measured timings (data loads, queue stabilization, printing/devices)
Business and technical freeze plan
Stock and operational reconciliation controls
Explicit rollback criteria and decision tree
Week-1 command center plan and escalation path

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. We have no commercial relationships with SAP system integrators or software vendors. Our assessments are independent and based solely on evidence and industry best practices.
Cutover assurance includes: master runbook review, dress rehearsal validation, timing baseline verification, freeze plan assessment, reconciliation controls, rollback criteria, and week-1 command center readiness.
We use a weighted scoring model across readiness domains, validate evidence against industry benchmarks, and assess risk severity. The recommendation is based on objective criteria, not opinion.
For multi-site programs, we assess template readiness, rollout sequencing, site-specific variations, and wave-to-wave learning mechanisms. Package L and XL include multi-site scope.
BIMO is not a delivery team. It's a governance function that manages cross-team dependencies, decision impacts, and integrated readiness. Think "air traffic control" rather than "pilot."
Access to project documentation (cutover plans, test results, training materials), key stakeholders for interviews, and system access for validation where needed.
Yes. We have deep expertise in SAP EWM, TM, GTS, and other supply chain modules. These can be included in the audit scope or BIMO interface catalog.
Yes. Packages S, M, and L are fixed scope with clear boundaries. XL and custom programs are typically time & materials with a capped budget. Scope boundaries are defined during the scoping call.
