Engineers planning a system migration

Many Faridabad suppliers bought an ERP ten or fifteen years ago, from a local vendor or as an early version of a branded product. It runs on an old server, only desktop, with reports nobody has changed in years. The vendor is unreachable or charges for every question.

Risks of staying

Unsupported database and operating systemNo mobile or remote accessNo e-invoice or portal integration without workaroundsOne person who knows how it worksData that cannot be extracted easily
02

The constraint: supply cannot stop

A supplier cannot tell its customer that dispatch is delayed because of software. Migration has to be invisible to the customer.

Cut over on a weekend, with Monday's invoices already tested.

Steps

2. Rebuild core flowsSchedule, production, dispatch and invoicing first
3. Test with real documentsInvoices, labels and ASN in the customer's format
4. Parallel dispatchA few parts through the new system
5. Full cut-overAt month start, old system kept read-only
