An SAP® implementation will change the way organizations process business transactions in a major way. And while redesigning transactions and business processes demand the lion’s share of implementation resources, ignoring organizational issues can make achieving goals significantly more difficult. In order to minimize risk and take advantage of the opportunities presented by an SAP implementation, it is crucial that those in a leadership position truly understand the organizational implications of a truly integrated system.
