ELEXON were looking to move from Unit4 Business World (Agresso) Milestone 4 to 7 within a ten week timescale

Their primary use of the Unit4 Business World (Agresso) ERP system focused around the Financial Management, Logistics and Projects modules, with them looking to replicate this functionality as part of the like for like upgrade. To help them achieve this, we provided them with resources who delivered key project management, Unit4 Business World (Agresso) system and technical skills. The results were as follows:

Time

Completed on time and under budget

We completed the upgrade not only within the ten week timescale, but also under budget, which enabled ELEXON to achieve unplanned for benefits through an earlier than anticipated implementation of Fixed Assets.

Solutions

Fixed Assets implementation (added benefit)

Due to the success and speed of the upgrade project, ELEXON were able to utilise the resources available to them to implement Fixed Assets, a project that was scheduled for post-upgrade. This proved to be a huge bonus to them, with their previous asset register purely Excel-based.

Technology

Minimal system downtime

The whole upgrade project was completed with ELEXON's Unit4 Business World (Agresso) system down for little more than a day.
