Making plant readiness visible before cutover
Executive situation
A complex S/4 transformation had extensive migration activity, but object-level status did not explain whether plants could operate on day one.
Leadership intervention
Established an object-by-plant readiness view, connected material dependencies across production and supply, strengthened reconciliation, and turned mock-cycle evidence into named decisions and owners.
Business evidence created
Leadership gained a defensible path from technical load results to operational sign-off, with blockers visible across material, BOM, routing, sourcing, costing, quality, batch, and inventory.
