Project Rescue

Project sponsors engaged in a BPM implementation can often find themselves disoriented when the principles of early user adoption, collaborative IT support, and business-driven process design aren’t aligned.

Is your BPM implementation showing any of these symptoms?  If so, it’s time to turn to a trusted advisor and conduct a project rescue.

Symptoms for Considering a Project Rescue

• Focus turned to the BPM tool and away from the business process
• Process design and development cycle exceeds the pace of the changing business environment
• Project lacks the critical business unit buy-in
• New requirements popping up during process development
• Cost and time overruns during implementation or upgrade
• No transfer of ownership from project sponsors to users
• IT resources have limited knowledge of business processes
• Discrepancy between early vendor promises made and actual implementation and process execution
• High risk of failure if few critical personnel turnover
• Slow user adoption
• BPM tools purchased but not implemented or underutilized
• Getting lost in “analysis paralysis”
