Outmoded Legacy Systems

Many companies rely on a mix of old technologies that hinder their ability to move forward. While new technologies offer promising solutions, upgrading without disrupting your operations can pose a significant challenge.

Changes and Updates to Business Processes

Integrating a new system requires updated working methods. Many organizations lack the resources necessary to retrain employees on new upstream and downstream processes.

End User Audience Concerns

Effective end user training is critical in providing employees with the knowledge and skills necessary to ensure successful solution adoption. Yet, many organizations struggle to deliver flexible learning experiences that cater to their workforce’s diverse demographics and learning preferences.

Cost and Investment Challenges

Upgrading to new technologies and infrastructure requires substantial investment in temporary or permanent workers. It can be difficult to find ways to balance these costs while maintaining your profitability.

This ensures a smooth adoption that delivers the transformative results and ROI your business requires.

Client Success Stories 

Change Management Strategy Empowers Project Teams to Adopt Agile Practices

Challenge: An oil and gas company was implementing the SAP S/4HANA ERP software suite. Several members of the client’s Project Team had never supported an Agile project before, which is a requirement of working with S/4HANA.

Solution: GP Strategies created a learning solution consisting of:

  • A Project Team Workshop to foster an Agile mindset.
  • A HANA and S/4HANA Client Enrollment Journey that transitioned the team to Agile working methods.
  • Change Agents embedded into the Project Team to support and drive change.

Results: The strategy ensured a successful system adoption by equipping the Project Team to perform in an Agile environment.

Multifunctional Document Management System Enhances Organizational Efficiency

Challenge: A top-five oil company needed to streamline its learning content development process to be more secure, structured, accessible, forward-looking, and capable of operating without a dedicated document coordinator.

Solution: GP Strategies provided a project management solution that integrated Microsoft® SharePoint™ as a document management software tool and management system. They developed an end user interface that was intuitive, unassuming, and capable of accommodating the client’s complex workflows and security protocols.  

Results: The solution resulted in savings of over 428 workforce hours during the first two years and played a crucial role in meeting the client’s Operator Training program objectives.  

 

Change Management Strategy Drives Successful EAM Adoption

Challenge: An offshore drilling company was transitioning its maintenance and inventory systems to Infor’s Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) software system.

Solution: GP Strategies designed a comprehensive change management and end-user training solution consisting of:

  • 15 role-based self-paced eLearning courses that provided conceptual information, interactive content, and knowledge checks.
  • 100+ interactive simulations that provided step-by-step guidance on how to use the new EAM system.
Results: The solution helped fuel success by driving rapid user adoption of the new system.
