First one took 16 months and then we did other phases in as little as 8 months – these implementations were highly complex with many union agreements (all different)
Have been a part of many implementations… the most memorable one was one where from start to finish was done within the year due to systems not being Y2K compliant and in the middle of the implementation, the software company was bought out by another company. Still a success, thanks to an amazing project manager.
This is good information to have. We will be hopefully transitioning to a new platform this year and they told us that a good implementation process should take no less than a year. I think management wants it done sooner but I worry things will get missed and we won’t be as thorough if we try to rush the process.
