ERP Project Recovery

 

ERP projects rarely fail in a single moment.

More often, they become harder to control with each passing phase. Timelines stretch, risks accumulate, and confidence across the business starts to erode.

Decisions are delayed, issues remain unresolved, and progress becomes difficult to measure with any certainty.

By the time leadership intervenes, the project is usually under significant pressure.

We provide you with a structured way to regain control. We help to stabilise delivery and determine a realistic path forward before further cost or disruption is incurred.

 

Get In Touch To Start Your

Free Initial Consultation

You’ll spend 30 minutes with a Director reviewing the current state of your ERP project, what’s causing delivery pressure, and where the most immediate risks sit. The focus is on understanding what’s happening now and what needs to change to regain control.

We’ll outline practical next steps to stabilise the programme and improve delivery, based on your current position.

This service is designed to help you:

  • Regain clarity on project status and priorities

  • Reduce ongoing delivery and financial risk

  • Address the root causes behind delays or issues

  • Rebuild structure, governance, and accountability

  • Move towards a controlled and realistic path to go-live

The aim is not to judge what’s gone wrong, but to help you protect the investment you’ve already made and move the project forward with confidence.

 

The Problem

Most ERP Projects Face When Things Start to Go Wrong

 

The warning signs are usually clear:

  • Milestones are missed or repeatedly moved

  • Scope has expanded without control

  • Data migration keeps getting pushed back

  • Stakeholders have lost confidence in delivery

  • Progress reports don’t reflect reality

Work continues, but without direction. The longer this continues, the harder recovery becomes.

 

Why Hire A Partner to Support Your

ERP Project Recovery?

 

When an ERP project starts to struggle, many organisations double down on effort instead of addressing the root causes.

Without intervention, this often leads to:

  • Continued spend with little progress

  • Poor-quality builds rushed to meet deadlines

  • A go-live that creates operational disruption

  • Expensive rework after implementation

  • Long-term damage to user trust

Hiring a partner like Threadgold Consulting who have a wealth of experience in rescuing delayed projects helps bring objectivity and control back into the programme.

It creates a clear, evidence-based view of what’s working, what isn’t, and what needs to change to move forward safely.

In some cases, that means resetting scope or timelines. In others, it means fixing governance, decision-making, or delivery discipline. The goal is always the same; a viable path to go-live.

What to Expect From Our ERP Project Recovery Service

Independent Programme Assessment

We rapidly assess the current state of the project across scope, delivery, governance, and risk.

This creates a clear picture of where the project is genuinely failing versus where progress is simply obscured.

Root Cause Analysis

We identify why issues have occurred, not just where they’ve appeared.

This prevents the same problems repeating under a new plan or revised timeline.

Stabilisation & Replanning

We define what needs to stop, what needs to change, and what can realistically continue.

This includes resetting milestones, responsibilities, and delivery priorities.

Active Recovery Management

Where required, we take on hands-on programme management to drive recovery through to a controlled go-live.

This ensures the recovery plan is executed, not just documented.
