A structured readiness checklist spanning operating model, governance, data, integration, testing, adoption and cutover.
Key takeaways
- Confirm business ownership and design principles before configuration accelerates.
- Treat data, integrations, controls and adoption as connected workstreams.
- Cutover readiness requires evidence, reconciliation and accountable decisions.
Strategy and governance readiness
Document measurable outcomes, scope boundaries, decision rights and design principles. Name process owners and establish how cross-functional conflicts will be resolved before detailed design begins.
- Approved business case, roadmap and scope baseline.
- Named executive sponsor, process owners and design authority.
- Integrated plan covering partners, dependencies and environments.
- Benefits, risks, assumptions and change-control mechanisms.
Solution and adoption readiness
Validate end-to-end processes rather than isolated module configurations. Maintain joined plans for data, integration, security, reporting, controls, testing, training and operational support.
- Data ownership, cleansing, reconciliation and archive decisions.
- Interface inventory with owners, volumes and failure handling.
- Role design, segregation controls and access-provisioning process.
- Role-based learning and business-readiness measures.
Cutover and operational readiness
Approve cutover only when rehearsals, reconciliation tolerances, support coverage and rollback decisions are explicit. Transition unresolved items into a governed post-go-live backlog with owners and priorities.
