Plan your Implementation for Success
A practical guide for R&D, Quality and PLM teams
Rolling out a platform that spans R&D, quality, and production is a big undertaking. It is exciting, but complex, and it depends on teams that don't always work in lockstep. Most of what determines success happens before go-live.
Drawing on more than 150 implementations, this guide answers the questions teams ask most: how long adoption really takes, what tends to get in the way, and what you can do to speed it up and start seeing ROI sooner. It is built to help you prepare for the rollout, and for what comes after it.
Plan a rollout that sticks, with lessons from 150+ implementations.
FAQs
It depends on scope: how many functions the platform spans and how much historical data you migrate. This guide shows how to estimate yours using patterns from more than 150 implementations.
The most common stumbling blocks are underestimating change management, unclear ownership across functions, and treating data cleanup as an afterthought. Each is avoidable with early planning.
Involve R&D, quality, and production in scoping from day one, agree on shared naming and structure early, and sequence the rollout so each team sees value quickly.
