ERP Project Management
ERP project management is a highly complex role, involving a combination of detailed day-to-day management of the internal ERP project team, co-ordination with the ERP vendor consulting team and periodic reporting on project progress to the project steering group. The role will also often encompass a significant element of change management and is one of the key appointments in any ERP project.

ERP Testing Management
ERP testing management includes development of the ERP project test strategy, followed by co-ordination and direction of the project test activity. ERP testing will generally involve a number of cycles, starting with unit testing and progressing through functional, integration, user acceptance and sometimes, performance testing. Most of the test cycles should be based on test scripts or scenarios, which have been developed by the ERP project team.

ERP Data Migration Management
During ERP data migration, data is extracted from legacy systems, cleansed and transformed into a format suitable for the new ERP system and loaded for use during testing or immediately prior to go-live. ERP data migration management ensures that the migration strategy and process is clearly defined and that the data required for each test cycle and for go-live, is available when required.

ERP Project Recovery
Many ERP implementation projects get into difficulty. Some of the issues will usually lie with the ERP vendor and some with the company that is implementing the ERP system. Often, each side will blame the other and relations break down, leaving a project in limbo. ERP project recovery involves assessing the project objectively, identifying the root cause of the issues and agreeing and managing a plan for completion.
