Name of Project: Providing System Upgrade Support
Client Sector: Pharmaceutical Sector
Public/Private: Private
Contract Description
Our client required an upgrade to their HR system from an older on premise version of their HRIS system to a new cloud based version. As part of this upgrade, the client wanted to ensure the successful transformation and migration of the current processes and data to the new system; in accordance with the best practice.
Contract Management
Readiness Phase - prior to the work commencing on the upgrade, a number of information gathering tasks were completed to ensure the client was ready for the upgrade. We worked with the client to build out the project plan that encompassed not only the technical aspects of the upgrade; but also the business and cultural impacts. This also included preparing test cases for trialing of the new system from a process, data and technical perspective.
System Build - we managed the system build and integration from a client perspective and oversaw the extracting of data from the current system and transferred to the new system. On behalf of the client, we ensured that this was carried out within the agreed timelines.
User Acceptance testing - following the completion and deployment of the new system, we managed and executed the test plan. All business processes were tested extensively, and any defects or issues were managed and resolved. Our team supported the client throughout this process by providing a team of expert consultants who worked both remotely and onsite.
System Go-Live - once the project was fully completed and reviewed, the client went live with the new software. Our team provided “live” support to the client to help ensure a smooth transition between environments and acted as point of support post upgrade.
Contract Performance
Client Satisfaction - The client was extremely happy with the results of the transition. They were particularly pleased with how the BDO Eaton Square team provided detailed planning and reporting around the upgrade process and ensured that each task was delivered on time to a high standard. This high level of accuracy ensured that current processes worked as expected; resulting in smooth transition to the new system.
Business Improvement - The client was also impressed with the level of subject matter expertise that BDO Eaton Square were able to impart.
The BDO Eaton Square team’s extensive knowledge of the systems helped the clients to develop and further their knowledge of various parts of the process.
