Common implementation challenges that can be mitigated

CHANGE CHAMPIONS

•Ensure the scope creep and other requirements don't get out of control. 

•Determine the HR transformation strategy and stick to that approach. 

•If there is not a legal reason for not doing that, adopt the BEST practice (this is one recommended approach).

 •Identify a strong change agent to move the team in a new direction.       

RESOURCE CONSTRAINTS

•Project team members don't have sufficient bandwidth to support the project 

•The project timeline isn't flexible enough to accommodate day to day work       

DATA CONVERSIONS

•Wanting an excessive amount of data loaded with no business purpose. 

•Oracle HCM isn't a data Wearhouse tool.    

CUSTOMIZATIONS AND OTHER PERSONALIZATION SPECIFIC TO YOUR BUSINESS

• Many times, customizations are due to poorly thought-out business processes. 

 •Avoid a lift and shift of legacy processes especially with customizations. 

OTHER COMMON CHALLENGES

•Reporting strategy - rationalize reports. 

•Consolidating third party vendors.
