Note:

Less time would be required for stabilization after the implementation as process and standards are defined with client. Only the
stabilization & adoption of phases in parallel with other module implementations needs to be ensured.

122 | P a g e

ERP Consulting

It has to be ensured that the users are able to pick up the system well and the system does not fall into deep backdated entries to meet
project timelines.
The change champion team will be available to monitor the update, changes closely with iON team during and post implementation to
enable a successful roll out of the product.
Adoption needs to be monitored on a regular basis and the same is to be presented to the higher management for speedy
implementation.
SPOC to ensure the availability of stakeholders and user for training and meetings.
Weekly review to be scheduled with the SPOC and the management for status of the implementation.
Detailed implementation plan to be chalked out and sent to the management and SPOC for review, once the implementation starts.

7.3. Change Management

In order to implement the ERP, FortuneArt Wires and Cables Pvt. Ltd., Electrical Lines and Vimal Power Lines might have to undergo
business transformation and it might create an uncertainty with respect to roles, responsibilities and timeline. To avoid any issue, a
structured change management program would be introduced which would be followed through the engagement cycle.
a. Communication plan and change champion
In order to instill the necessity and benefits of implementing an ERP within the working staff, a proper communication plan would be
developed and a change champion would be identified both of which together would be able to convince the working staff regarding the
importance of their new roles and its impact over the performance of the entire organization. This, in turn, would enhance the acceptability
of ERP in the organization and lead to a smooth transition.
As part of this activity, once the implementation start date is finalized, a detailed communication plan will be circulated to all the relevant
stakeholders in the organization on the activity, when its happening, whats expected from everyone, how it will be done and through
whom it will be done will be notified. Also a checklist will be given to monitor the blackout period i.e. transition period for closing in the
legacy system and loading the balance in the ERP. During the blackout period, activities to be monitored will be available in a checklist. There
is a template to monitor the post go live performance and adoption of ERP for the management to strategize the decisions.
