The scariest sentence during a new tech implementation project?

“We’ve always done it this way.” Every company has heard it. Some leaders even say it themselves. It’s a phrase that feels safe, but in reality, it’s one of the biggest barriers to progress during a technology project. When a business decides to invest in a new ERP or other major system, the motivation typically...

Change resistance isn't always loud

Change resistance isn’t always loud

When it comes to change management in an ERP implementation, resistance is often misunderstood. Company owners or business leaders most likely picture vocal pushback. They think of that employee who challenges a decision in a meeting. Or the team that refuses to adopt a new tool. Maybe even the stakeholder who digs in their heels...

At the beginning of a tech project, especially something as big as an ERP implementation, the usual move is to start gathering requirements.

Stop collecting requirements. Start identifying what really needs to change

At the beginning of a tech project, especially something as big as an ERP implementation, the usual move is to start gathering requirements.

ERP testing

Why ERP testing matters more than you think

Think of ERP testing like a dress rehearsal before a stage performance. Regardless of the months you spent preparing, writing the script, setting the stage and training your cast, unless you’ve run through the show properly, under real conditions, you’re leaving too much to chance when the curtain rises.

Common mistakes to avoid at the start of ERP implementation programmes

Common mistakes to avoid at the start of ERP implementation programmes

Think of an ERP programme like building a house. You can have the most expensive materials, the best tools and the most intricately designed plan. But if the foundations are off, it doesn’t matter how beautifully designed the rest of the building is. Sooner or later, your house is bound to crack. Doors won’t close properly and walls might...

Why good change management needs rhythm, not just a plan

Why good change management needs rhythm, not just a plan

Change is never easy. Even when new systems are designed to simplify workflows or make day-to-day life easier, the reality is, people resist change.  That’s why change management exists.

Why Tech Transformations or Implementations Need to Be Human-Centred

Why Tech Transformations or Implementations Need to Be Human-Centred

When it comes to large-scale ERP implementations and other technology transformations, it’s easy to focus on the systems, the software and the processes. These are all important for success, of course, but the most successful transformations don’t just hinge on the technical bits. They thrive because they are human-centred.  At BR One, we believe in...
