RESCUE PROJECTS FOR ASSOCIATIONS AND NONPROFITS
Rescuing Failed Projects
If your association or nonprofit is struggling with a failing software implementation, Systems Rewired offers rescue services to get your project back on track. Failed implementations are common, especially for organizations implementing platform-based solutions for the first time, and even with careful planning, delays and suboptimal outcomes can occur. This can be costly, frustrating, and may even lead to abandoning the project.
If you’re facing challenges with an ongoing implementation or considering a switch to a consulting firm with the right expertise, Systems Rewired can help. Our rescue project services are designed to realign your project and guide it to successful completion.
Reasons for Failed Implementation
Common Causes
Lack of expertise: The vendor does not have necessary skills, knowledge, or experience to perform a task or complete a project.
Poor discovery: The vendor is unfamiliar with your business and not asking the right questions during discovery.
Poor requirements: The needs and expectations of the organization are not accurately captured and defined during the discovery phase
Inadequate planning: Inadequate planning can lead to unrealistic schedules, budgets, and expectations, which can put the project at risk from the start.
Poor execution: Poor execution can be caused by insufficient resources, or a lack of teamwork and collaboration.
Resources: Revolving resources and poor handoff.
