What she had to say
“It’s extremely important when taking on new SAP integration projects that the decision makers talk to the people in the trenches! Otherwise you end up with unrealistic deadlines and shifting objectives. On this new 3Com acquisition upper management wants to see immediate savings on the books so we were given only ten days to complete our due diligence research and develop an integration strategy, timeline and budget. It’s like shooting in the dark which ultimately means the project manger has to inflate the expected budget and pad the expected timelines to ensure we’re able to meet senior management expectations.”

Key Points of Interview

Review the processes before making decisions
Proper planning will save money and increase efficiency – even if you seem like you’re getting nothing accomplished for longer.Change management tools are critical and even though HP is a large company not everybody gets the tools they need
