What to expect from your company when transitioning to a new system?

Leaving aside the differences, benefits, and contributions to management that DerinSİS will bring to the company, especially for employees who sincerely participate in the project, we want to convey the difficulties that will arise during the project.

Employee Habits

Employees have many good and bad habits when doing their jobs. Employees tend to continue their habits without considering the consequences. This is a claim that applies to all of us by nature, but it is also one of the main issues that affect the success of projects that involve very technical work. All of these are questioned with the new system, or rather, they should be.

Company Habits

Companies continue to implement decisions they have made and not made in the past, as if they were still valid rules. The best and most challenging opportunity to change these is during the software change process. The biggest task in this inevitable timing falls to the will of company managers. Until managers believe that innovations can be achieved, it is impossible for employees to move forward.

Ongoing Business

Regardless of management and employees' support for innovations, implementing a new system is really challenging when there are already sufficient and sometimes inefficient daily tasks. Customers always want to keep trainers with them for a longer period, but in reality, there is not enough time for training from daily tasks. The urgent payments, visiting companies, and important customer issues to be resolved are always prioritized, and training sessions are postponed. At least it is squeezed into a narrow time frame. It is crucial to consider daily operations when making a project plan.

Timing

There are many factors to consider when planning the transition timing, such as financial periods, seasonal intensities, leave periods, public holidays, etc. No matter how perfect the software system is, if the transition time is not well planned, problems beyond acceptable difficulties will be encountered. If the accounting manager is on leave during the most sensitive period, the purchasing manager cannot participate in the training period, the store manager and employees during the intense shopping period, it seems challenging for the store automation project to leave a positive impression in people's minds. Moreover, as time passes from the training period, the features of the new system may be forgotten, and the initial enthusiasm may decrease.

Information Reset

A user will never be satisfied with starting everything from scratch with the new system unless they are locked into a corporate common goal, even if they can do their job well or poorly in the previous system. While we focus on company goals, some people may complain for personal reasons, hinder progress, direct training in the wrong directions with excessive enthusiasm, or avoid being controlled.

Auditing

The fact that previously verbal tasks are now recorded may not please some employees and managers. With the features of DerinSİS, the approval process runs with software, orders are taken as a basis, sales targets can be created, price differences are tracked by the system, and users have a sense of being auditable at any time. It is unrealistic to expect someone who does not trust themselves in their business life to be pleased with this.

Reorganization

Often, when transitioning to new software, long-awaited innovations and improvements in business processes are also desired to be completed, which is natural. However, if not properly distinguished, this can be another source of difficulty for establishing the software system.

Size

In companies above a certain size, what makes managers most hesitant when deciding on a new system or even a new business process is the company's size. The goal is, in fact, to work more efficiently at this size and be prepared to grow.
