ERP project staffing
How should an ERP implementation team be staffed?
An ERP project needs named owners for functional design, integrations, data, security, testing, cutover, and post-go-live support. The project phase determines which skills belong in the first hiring wave. Discovery calls for process and architecture leadership. Configuration and migration require platform specialists who can show work in the modules and interfaces in scope. Testing and cutover add reconciliation, release, and business-readiness duties. Crosscheck converts those duties into separate search profiles instead of treating the platform name as the job description. The SuccessFactors case study describes recruiting Bennett led before founding Crosscheck: he recruited contractors during active project work and permanent employees as the company brought long-term ownership in-house.
