Samenvatting:

Few topics bring a chill to discussions between senior executives than "enterprise system implementations." And for good reason.Many studies estimate that as much as 70% of enterprise system implementation result in serious difficulties, ranging from lost sales, crippling of internal functions, loss of competitive position, and in a few cases, outright bankruptcy. Not to mention damage to promising careers.Paul Deis has led or participated in numerous enterprise software implementation projects throughout his 25+ year career as a consultant, enterprise software company leader, IT professional, and senior operations executive. Early on, he learned the key insights to virtually risk-free implementation projects.The key insights are deceptively simple, yet seem elusive to leaders of a great percentage of these projects.This short, very readable book shows the secrets of risk-free implementation projects - including project governance, leadership, team composition, outsourcing, software, and the key to success - ownership of the work.
