Taking steps to mitigate the risk of this decision can reduce the possibility of having to switch partners midway through a project. Switching implementation partners will result in added costs, project delays, and frustration for all those involved.
Prior to vetting a potential partner, a review of at least two customer references is advised. Exploring the following attributes is recommended during this partner review process:
- Will they be considered an extension of your team?
- Do they have structured processes for project management?
- Do you trust them with your critical business systems?
- Will they be accountable for the success of the implementation?
- Will they empower your employees to be self-sufficient?
- Will they be flexible as your organization goes through inevitable change?
- Do they have the deep technical and product expertise to guide you through this digital transformation era?
