SAP Enterprise Transformation with Organizational Change Management

Companies implement Organizational Change Management for many reasons: expansion, restructuring, merger & acquisition, regulatory compliance, SAP and ERP transformation – anything that requires an organization to adopt new processes and mindsets. To effectively implement OCM, companies need to understand how they are currently managing change, what are their challenges and opportunities, and how are they planning on integrating change management and training. Bull City Talent can provide the right resource to help you strategize on how to best implement Organizational Change.

SAP and ERP Transformation OCM Approaches

Consultants among our Talent Community have various approaches for helping you navigate change. The following example depicts Clarkston Consulting’s approach, as featured in a recent case study here.

1. Assess needs and build strategy for change management
   Align change management efforts with the company’s larger strategic goals. Interview key stakeholders to gain complete understanding of company strategy; define qualitative and quantitative feedback parameters.
2. Engage leaders and finalize strategy 
   Foster early support by engaging and evaluating the strategy with key business sponsors. Refine and adjust the initial change management and communication strategies based on leadership input.
3. Engage employee base
   Launch change management and communication campaign through employee education and feedback events. Host events supported by targeted communications, including peer-to-peer communications and collaboration. Collect feedback along the way; refine and adjust the strategy based on the data collected.
4. Assess readiness
   Conduct a quantitative readiness assessment survey to ensure everyone is aware of the change and its impacts. Adjust messaging and logistics accordingly.
5. Support transition
   Facilitate activities to ensure and support behavior change (e.g., workshops, communications, activities). Assess change effectiveness via post-move quantitative survey.
