Questions worth asking before the shortlist.
Embedded or decentralized EWM?
The deployment model changes the integration, Basis and upgrade work around the warehouse.
Which plants go first?
A pilot plant and a template rollout need different mixes of design and deployment people.
Is quality in scope at go-live?
QM is often deferred, then needed urgently when the first batch is blocked.
GTS 11 or edition for HANA?
The migration path decides whether you need a compliance consultant or a migration team.
