Required reading for Project Managers

The stated subject of the book is implementing EPR packages with SAP R/3 software. It deals with the subject matter in great detail and in a very practical manner. The treatment of problems encountered and the "Lessons Learned" section of each chapter are particularly well done. Mr. Welti relates these only to the particular project in question. They are, however, applicable to almost any project that involves a change in the company system. For this reason the book is a valuable reference to any project manager. The book is, in my opinion, required reading for every project manager.

Two thumbs up!

The book is absolutely great. It is easy to read and understand. It is a must for everybody implementing SAP R/3. The book contains so many useful tips and tricks and prevents you from making serious mistakes.It guides you well through the entire cycle of a project. The recommended project management tools help you to stay in time and budget. Very well done!

Very practical guide for complex SAP-implementations

As former management consultant implementing SAP this book is the 1st practical guide helping you to setup and rollout a SAP-project. The regular project management courses offer you just the general things that you have to do. They don't tell you were the pitfalls are and how you can overcome these issues. Welti's book is giving, based upon a real life case, just that extra information which might help the project members and organisation in carrying out a successfull SAP-implementation. This book is a must for project managers, -members and managers involved in the complex SAP-projects.

High practical value for all participants in ERP projects

Having implemented more than 10 complete SAP projects myself (as a consultant and later on as a project manager), I rate this book as very helpful. It has an especially practical approach and is very easy to read. Most of all I appreciated the very personal comments about problems commonly occurring and mistakes often done during the projects live-cycle. But also the checklists, summaries and other tools used in projects are very useful and of a high practical value. I can recommend this book to internal and external project managers, key-users, as well as consultants.
