Project rescue

Your ERP project has stalled. That is more common than anyone admits.

We are regularly the second partner on a project — sometimes the third. A fixed two to three week assessment tells you where the project actually is, why it stopped, and what it will honestly take to finish.

Sound familiar?

If two or more of these are true, you have a rescue on your hands.

  • Go-live has moved three times and nobody will commit to a fourth date.
  • The budget is spent and the system is not in production.
  • The partner who sold you the licences has no delivery capacity.
  • Your internal project lead left and took the knowledge with them.
  • It went live, and the business quietly went back to spreadsheets.
  • Nobody can tell you what percentage of scope is actually complete.

The rescue assessment

Two to three weeks. Fixed fee. An answer you can take to the board.

We do not need you to commit to us as your implementation partner to run this. Plenty of clients take the assessment, use it to hold their existing partner accountable, and finish with them. That is a fine outcome.

01

Establish where the project really is

We audit what is configured, what is scoped, what is tested and what is documented — against the contract you signed. Most rescues begin with the discovery that "80% complete" meant something different to everyone.

02

Find the actual failure

The stated reason is rarely the real one. We interview the project team, the business users and the sponsor separately, because they will tell you three different stories and the truth sits between them.

03

Give you three costed options

Finish on the current platform, restart the implementation, or stop and re-select. Each with cost, timeline and risk stated plainly — including the option that earns us nothing.

One thing we will not do

We will not tell you the previous partner was incompetent in order to win the work. Sometimes they were. More often the scope was never fixed, the data was worse than anyone admitted, or the business never freed up the people the project needed. If that is what we find, we will say so — including the part where the client contributed to it.

Next step

Tell us what went wrong.

A confidential thirty-minute call. Bring the status report you do not believe, and we will tell you what questions to ask about it.
