Project Managers, Business Managers, Business Analysts and IT Professionals all have a goal of reducing business risks, delivering a high quality product, and preventing schedule and cost overruns when implementing new or upgraded business system applications. This book explores Hot Tap Strategy techniques that will eliminate the need to shut down the production business processes while converting to the new application�techniques you can use in your next project...and thereby reduce risks associated with the Go Live stage of system implementation.
These are techniques that can be equally understood and appreciated by Business Management and Information Technology professionals.
The author has deliberately avoided reference to a specific corporation or industry, since the ideas that led to success in his projects are not a reflection of any specific organization�s system development policy. The case study examples are generic business situations applicable to virtually any mid-size to large corporation.
