Data Migration & SAP Program Management Insights
Cutover Planning — The Underrated Risk
Cutover is often seen as the final formality. In reality, it is where programs are most exposed. Success requires treated reality, not assumptions.
Why Data Migrations Fail — It’s Rarely Technical
Successful data migration requires treating it as a business-critical program component, not just a technical back-office task.
