Selection, implementation, and rescue: 29 JDE EnterpriseOne implementations within 100+ enterprise systems engagements across Oracle, SAP, and Microsoft Dynamics. If your program has turned yellow or red, I diagnose the structural failure and lead the recovery through go-live.
The Problem
ERP programs fail in predictable ways: the integrator replicated your legacy mess in new software; the master data foundation was never designed; training was an afterthought; the planning engine was configured but nobody architected how planning should work. The dashboard turns yellow, then red — and now you are paying for the program twice.
The Engagement
Honest diagnosis of what can be salvaged versus what must be rebuilt, then hands-on recovery leadership through go-live. Three documented rescues with full go-live achieved. Recovery discipline: master data redesign first, gated environments (Pristine through Production), data migration scrutinized by someone who has personally done the work, and parallel testing before cutover.

Proof
National pipe distributor (250K SKUs, 18 DCs): Third consulting firm on the second ERP attempt; redesigned master data taxonomy and SIOP architecture; converted manual procurement planning to automated, exception-based management
Global 500 manufacturing division: JDE implementation within a full operating model redesign; cycle times from 8+ months to under 3; two decades of losses reversed to profitability
$1.5B agricultural cooperative: Mill planning from 3+ hours to under 30 minutes; ~90% automation; retail inventory accuracy from under 50% to ~100%
Agricultural chemical manufacturer: Month-end close from over 2 weeks to under 2 hours; demurrage and partial-load returns cut by over 95%
ERP Implementation & Recovery
Selection, implementation, and rescue — from someone who has done all three, repeatedly.
