Why projects lose control
Payroll implementations rarely fail because of one big thing.
Problems accumulate when ownership is unclear, testing evidence is fragmented, risks are not visible and teams reach go-live without a consistent readiness view.
02
Critical evidence lives everywhere
Testing, risks, decisions, parallel-run results and readiness actions become difficult to see as one picture.
03
Go-live becomes subjective
Without explicit controls and sign-off criteria, teams can move forward without a reliable view of what is truly ready.
