IT Implementation Statistics “ 57% of software implementations take longer than expected…”– Panorama Consulting Survey Saa. S implementations are 37% faster than installed software implementations. However, even Saa. S implementations normally take 6 to 12 months. – Panorama Consulting Survey 87% of failed implementations had insufficient ‘change management’– CRM Survey Failed implementations typically tried to do too much, too soon. 67% of respondents in failed implementations cited an “overly broad scope” as a “significant factor” in the project’s failure. Fewer than 25% of implementations fully interface all systems and/or databases– IT CIO Survey 1
Top 5 Reasons Implementations Fail 1) Lack of dedicated resources 2) Poor data quality 3) Overly broad scope 4) Unrealistic time frame 5) Cumbersome system integrations 2
Implementation Best Practices • Establish a project team (whether 1 person from client or 2 -3) who have time to commit to the effort (typically ~50 to ~100 hours) and access to necessary data • Limit initial scope to 1 -2 modules • Plan to have system online several weeks before deadline (e. g. , open enrollment) • Follow the test plan in detail 3
Implementation Pitfalls • Inability to attend meetings / trainings • Data that is late or has errors • Plan or file changes late in the process • Trying to implement too many modules at one time • General lack of responsiveness (by any of the parties) • Lack of testing 4
