Management may not be able to effectively budget, resource and plan for programme activities without a clear, defined and agreed scope, which clearly sets out the required business outcomes and aligns to the programmes business case.

We validate the completeness of the target operating model and organisational design to ensure that all required business outcomes have been captured and are reflected in programmes scope and solution design.

Solution design and build form key elements of the programmes critical path and ultimately the success of the programme. We review and validate the programmes solution to ensure the design and build is aligned to the programmes scope and delivers the key business outcomes and benefits.

The delivery model may not align to the plan or able to support the programmes aspirations. Plans may not contain all the required tasks to deliver, identify the critical path and key stage gates. Management may not have fully considered the impact of wider programme obligations or dependencies.

The team may not be clear on the amount  of resource needed to deliver successfully or have access to resources with the required skills and experience at the right times.

Data is at the heart of every ERP solution and operating model. We review the data strategy, data design and data migration approach, ensuring it aligns to the programme scope and expected business outcomes.

A process of robustly impact assessing proposed changes may not be in place, resulting in changes being made without appropriate consideration and approval.
