A map of current operations
Review applications, data sources and decision points with departments. Document handoffs and waiting stages from the start of a task to completion.
Priorities and dependencies
Consider business value, delivery complexity, data readiness and team capacity. Plan supporting phases rather than assuming every system must change at once.
Technology and data architecture
Compare ERP, internal software and integration options with current systems. Clarify the system of record, access ownership and dependencies.
Implementation and measurement
The first implementation has defined owners, acceptance criteria and measures. Later stages are updated in light of its results. The roadmap remains a working plan that shows completed work and changing requirements.
