When migrating from an old system, it's important to have financial talent with migration experience that understands your financial data. In conjunction with our sister advisory firm, Cogiliti, we can manage the entire process for you. Or, if you just need one or more financial experts to assist your existing team, we can provide the necessary support.

This answer depends on the needs and stage of your business. For a small, growing company, you may need to migrate your HR and Accounting needs to a new platform, but you may not be ready for a full ERP solution. For larger companies managing many disparate platforms and applications while operating on a legacy ERP system, a more comprehensive migration should be considered to consolidate and centralize your systems environment.

Migrating systems starts with understanding the business and its needs moving forward. Any migration project should first begin with assessing the current systems environment and the corporate strategy it supports. Suppose the company is complex and the anticipated project is large; another assessment phase may be needed to dive deeper into the business and initiate a systems selection process. For example, a small migration project that includes just an accounting system may only take 4 to 12 weeks. More extensive, complex projects that may involve the restructuring of a company's data environment and the integration of new systems can take a year or more to complete, subject to the level of investment in the project.
