Data Migration
Significantly reducing data migration risks!
Businesses accumulate a mass of data to be able to offer more customer-centric services and in order to remain competitive. At the same time systems continuously become increasingly sophisticated requiring constant upgrades.
Data migration, although not often talked about, is in fact a common task in the IT environment. Whether the company is moving from legacy systems to a new platform, installing data warehouses, or merging with another company and systems.
Two of the most common mistakes organisations make is not including the data migration process in the overall project and not engaging with the correct data migration partner from the start of the project. Often the data migration process is left to the last minute and treated as a low-level technical task.

Data migration is not a project that many IT departments deliver on a regular basis. So, it’s understandable that you may not have the skills, capabilities, or resources in-house to successfully complete the project. At the same time, some may opt for a DIY approach, but this also introduces a different set of challenges and can be costly in time as you look for support and training, potentially during the project, on a new IT tool.
Using an internal tool doesn’t cover all eventualities and decisions about your overall data migration strategy. Will ‘big bang’ work for you or should you take a more staggered approach by business line or product? It also doesn’t take into consideration the best approach to working with the business. What are the critical questions that need to be asked to ensure the accurate mapping of data, rules, and calculations? Are you able to provide any surety around the testing and reconciliation of data?
