EAM System Implementations

For those clients who have chosen to transition to a new EAM solution, the implementation and associated risks and hurdles can be formidable. Ready anecdotes concerning cost overruns, incomplete results and outright failures abound in the industry. Before embarking on this journey, clients must consider and address the following:

• Establishing a solid cross-functional "Core Team"
• Enlisting Management Support
• Involving the end user community
• Establishing criteria for success
• Building a reasonable project roadmap with milestones
• Setting a reasonable scope and avoiding scope creep
• Planning for incremental improvement in successive phases
• Taking ownership of the project from the service provider early in the process
• Providing adequate end user training

Our involvement in many implementations has taught us valuable lessons about what does and doesn't work in EAM implementations. We can provide services ranging from Project Management to End-User training to Full Service Implementations.
