SCOPING ACCURACY:
How well did your implementation partner scope the work and understand your needs during the pre-sales process?
Partner scoped and quoted the work well, but our needs changed during implementation

Was the implementation team who actually performed the work the same team that was proposed?
Slight change in team

What “Lessons Learned” would you provide to others implementing with this partner / software? What else would you tell us about your project experience?
For Ultimate Software my feedback is that the estimations provided include ONLY configuration for the talent modules. The reality is that the organization implementing has many other items to plan for. But when you engage with the Ultimate Talent team the clock for configuration starts ticking according to their internal KPIs. This was actually something a colleague who implemented had shared and while I tried to stay ahead it still became an issue. This was not true with their CORE implementation team. They were GREAT!

We engaged HRMS Solutions to support the Talent module rollout due to the constraint of capacity on our team and the pace of the Talent consultants. Shadana’s experience, solution oriented approach and flexibility were a huge asset to help us stabilize the work while we continue to transition Core Payroll and benefits to operational support while launching Talent modules. I would rehire HRMS and ask for Shadana in a minute for future projects. The Ultimate team overall was terrific – it was just the Talent module launch team that seemed disjointed. The rating below is for HRMS Solutions
