Overview
Managing change, multiple partners, and ensuring return on significant investments
The challenge
A leading international university had finance systems dating back to the 1990s. With ambitious plans and continual improvements to student and staff services, it needed a modern ERP finance technology solution to support its growth trajectory.
For such a significant investment and change management programme, Org was selected as their transformation partner.
Our independent advisors were on hand to manage in a multi-partner environment, ensuring the successful start-up of the programme and partnering in the implementation of Workday Finance ERP.
The how
How we delivered Organisational Engineering™
- Through close collaboration with the senior leadership team, a business case was written along with a clear roadmap for financial transformation
- A detailed market analysis, cost and business benefits were developed, reviewing finance technology options and the change management required for a successful delivery
- After the design and requirements gathering phase, we resourced subject matter experts to be accountable for the implementation, along with programme control and assurance mechanisms
