Independent Implementation QA (Client-Side Lead)
Bauherrenvertretung for manufacturing executives. Protecting executive leadership against software vendor scope creep, delayed Go-Lives, and unverified invoice sign-offs.
The Inherent Conflict of Interest in ERP Delivery
System integrators bill by the day. When custom code creates regressions, they bill more days to fix it. Executive boards need independent technical leadership on their side of the table.
Milestone Verification & Sign-Off Control
Never release milestone payments based on vendor slide decks. We independently verify that configured modules meet functional acceptance criteria on shop-floor test runs.
Vendor Change Request (CR) Vetting
We scrutinize every proposed change request. In many implementations, vendor claims of ‘necessary custom development’ can be solved using standard configuration and native workflows, avoiding costly technical debt and maintenance overhead.
Realistic User Acceptance Testing (UAT)
We design test scenarios using edge-case shop-floor orders (split batches, partial scrap, rework loops) with actual machine operators, not sanitized test files.
Data Migration Quality Assurance
We validate legacy data transformation scripts before cutover, preventing corrupted open orders and distorted stock valuations from poisoning the new system.
Retainer Model & Accountability
Engagement Model: Client-Side Advisory Retainer | Typically 3 to 9 Months during active deployment
- Bi-weekly executive milestone audit reports directly to the Managing Director & CFO
- Participation in project steering committee meetings as client technical advocate
- Final Go-Live readiness sign-off based on objective technical benchmarks
