Business Process: Balancing Solution Quality with Project Time, Budget and Scope
Bruce Karr | Tuesday, March 25 at 8:30am
Many projects face the difficult situation where the quality of implementation suffers due to the importance of staying on-time, on budget and in-scope. This session offers some experiences and recommendations to balance the quality and readiness for the future state solution with the other three project management pillars. There will also be an opportunity to review and discuss one or two real-world situations from the audience.
Sponsor Track: QAD EE Upgrade Case Study
Bruce Karr, Diane Borromeo | Tuesday, March 25 at 11:15am
Lassonde Pappas was running a heavily customized version of QAD’s 2008 SE that was beginning to impede the company’s ability to grow per its strategic plans. Additionally, many of its long-term employees were retiring, leaving it with a gap in system knowledge. Lastly, it had an eleven-month window to execute this upgrade that it had to hit. Therefore, there was little room for error. Join us for this interactive presentation on how Lassonde Pappas and Logan Consulting partnered to execute the upgrade within its window of opportunity, the tradeoffs required as well as the benefits achieved.
We look forward to seeing you at the MWUG Spring 2025 conference!
