Thank you f or your consideration of this project. This inf ormation is meant to
address questions posed by the board af ter my last report particularly related to the
implementation schedule, more specifics on costs, and how we would address roadblocks.
Please see additional inf ormation below.
The implementation scheduled was outlined as f ollows: six months of planning and
analysis, f our months of execution, f our weeks of training, six weeks of testing, and six days
of go-live, or implementation. The planning phase will require a number of resources to be in
our schools shadowing employees to identify their daily tasks that will be part of the new ERP.
They will have group meetings and get to know each school’s needs. Their report will bring
light to
the questions about how to best implement the ERP f or our school system. The execution
phase will take the documentation of the prior phase and put action to the plan that is set f
orth. Development will have the specif ications needed to perf orm their tasks and they will
work closely with the analysts to determine the best method of implementing those solutions.
As the training begins, there will be a number of instructors f rom our consultant team that has
reviewed the new environment and gone through the test scripts to identif y the needed points
of emphasis

documented and tracked towards a solution f or reference. The go -live will be a multi-day
sequence of task across several teams to ensure the environment is up, stable, and configur
ed with the best practices identif ied during the project.
