Scope

1 area implies 6 topics across 3 modules

Cutover Checklist

You did not pick these

Data & Analytics, Integration

Your streams cross into these modules, so the work happens there too. That is the part most scoping exercises miss.

The end-to-end

Plan-to-Cutover (Go-Live)

PMO & Programme Governance → Data & Analytics → Integration

Data in and out

What actually crosses the boundary, which way, how often, and what it costs when it stops.

Crosses your scope boundary

Opening balances and master data→General Ledger

Data Migration · without it: The new ledger opens on numbers nobody can reconcile to the old one.

Integration points

Every module boundary a stream crosses is an interface. The ones marked straddle your scope — you are changing one side and not the other, which is the interface most often missed at scoping and found during testing.

The order to do it in

01

Data Migration

Nothing in scope blocks these — they can start together.

02

Cutover & Go-Live

Unblocked once the phase above is standing.

Sequence is a delivery judgement rather than a fact about the taxonomy. These are proposals from common tier-1 ordering — argue with them.

Assumed already in place

This scope depends on Programme Governance without including it. Fine if it is already standing and staying as it is — a gap in the plan otherwise.

Concerns raised

Australian obligations in scope

Nothing AU-specific in this scope.

Everything in scope — 6 topics

The ones you chose, and the ones they brought with them. An implied topic cannot be dropped on its own — it is here because of a pick, and the pick is named.

This is a diagnosis, not a plan

Build takes the same scope and turns it into the documents somebody has to write — the investment brief, the business case, the plans — starting with what each one needs as an input before its headings can be answered honestly.
