In the go-live phase, the implementation team should address the following milestones:

• Cutover checklist: This checklist covers everything from master data to opening balances and open transactions to be made available on day one of going live.
• Go-live readiness: This includes everything needed to prepare your organization for smooth transition to the new system:
  • Environment: This helps in knowing the whereabouts of the environment and its planning and distribution with needed stakeholders.
  • Access: Accurate access/security is key to ensure users can perform their work in the new ERP.
  • Communication mailers: This helps to keep everyone on the same page.

After a successful go-live, it is important to continue the journey and keep reaping benefits from the business platform while keeping it healthy.
