Migrating Lawson On-Premise to Infor Cloudsuite

As businesses grow and technology advances, it’s not uncommon for companies to outgrow their current enterprise resource planning (ERP) software. In some cases, this may mean moving from an on-premise solution, such as Lawson, to a cloud-based platform like Infor Cloudsuite. If you’re considering making the switch, here are some steps to keep in mind.

  1. Evaluate your current system: Before making any changes, it’s important to evaluate your current system to identify what’s working well and what needs improvement. Consider factors like system performance, ease of use, functionality, and cost. This will help you determine whether Infor Cloudsuite is the right choice for your organization and identify any specific features or functions you need to ensure a successful transition.
  2. Plan your migration: Once you’ve decided to move to Infor Cloudsuite, the next step is to plan your migration. This involves determining what data needs to be migrated, setting a timeline for the transition, and identifying any potential challenges or roadblocks. It’s also important to consider how the migration will impact your business operations and develop a plan to mitigate any disruptions.
  3. Prepare your data: Before migrating to Infor Cloudsuite, you’ll need to ensure that your data is ready for the transition. This may involve cleaning up data, consolidating data sources, and preparing data for the new platform. It’s important to work closely with your IT team to ensure that data is transferred accurately and securely.
  4. Prepare interfaces: Determine which interfaces, both internal and between 3rd party vendors, will need to be rewritten, and which ones can be archived.  Work closely with IT to refactor or recreate the interfaces and prepare them for the new cloud environment.
  5. Train your staff: Moving to a new ERP platform can be a significant change for your organization, so it’s important to provide training and support to your staff. This may involve providing training on the new system, helping staff understand how to use new features, and ensuring that they have the resources they need to be successful.
  6. Go live: Once you’ve completed all of the necessary preparation and training, it’s time to go live with Infor Cloudsuite. This is a critical phase of the transition, as it’s important to ensure that the new system is fully operational and that any issues are quickly addressed. It’s also important to have a plan in place to handle any unforeseen issues or challenges that may arise during this phase.
  7. Monitor and optimize After the transition is complete, it’s important to continue monitoring the new system to ensure that it’s meeting your organization’s needs. This may involve tracking system performance, identifying areas for improvement, and making changes to optimize the system. By continually monitoring and optimizing the system, you can ensure that you’re getting the most out of Infor Cloudsuite and supporting your organization’s ongoing success.

In conclusion, moving from Lawson on-premise to Infor Cloudsuite can be a complex process, but by following these steps and working closely with your IT team and vendor, you can ensure a successful transition. By choosing a cloud-based ERP solution like Infor Cloudsuite, you can benefit from improved functionality, scalability, and cost-effectiveness, supporting your organization’s growth and success in the years to come.
