Find out what will break your go-live, while there is still time to fix it.
A fixed-price £3,000 readiness review of your Manhattan Active WM programme. You get a readiness score across the delivery dimensions, a written blocker list with an owner and a severity against each item, and a recommended sequence to go-live. It is judgement applied to your own artefacts — not a tool scan, and not a health-check template with your logo on it.
£3,000 fixed · about 3 weeks · document-based and remote · no production access needed
Before you buy anything: read the 43-item checklist this review scores against. It is free, it is the whole method in public, and if it tells you what you needed to know then you did not need me.
Tell me the date, the sites and what is worrying you. You get a straight answer about whether a review would help, including when it would not.
Who does the work
Role and expertise, because that is what you are buying. No logos and no borrowed credibility.
The work itself: discovery and fit-gap; configuration governance; integration and interface design; master data; SIT, UAT and test readiness; cutover planning; and hypercare. Those seven are also the sections of the checklist, because a review that scores you against something other than the way the work is actually done is a review of the wrong thing.
The Cutover Readiness Review
One fixed price, one scope, one document at the end of it.
Manhattan Active WM Cutover Readiness Review
| What it costs | £3,000, fixed. One price for the whole review, agreed before it starts. |
|---|---|
| What you get | A readiness score across the delivery dimensions; a written blocker list with an owner and a severity against every item; and a recommended sequence to go-live. |
| How it runs | Document-based and remote. I read what your programme has already produced — plans, fit-gap logs, interface specifications, test packs, cutover runbooks — and interview the people who own them. |
| How long | About 3 weeks from the documents landing to the report. |
| System access | None required. No access to production, and no connection into your environments. |
| Procurement | Fixed price, so there is no change order to raise and no time-and-materials cycle to approve. |
| What it is not | It is not a tool scan and it is not an audit of your data. It is judgement applied to the programme's own artefacts, and it is only as good as the artefacts and the conversations. |
What usually comes next
On most programmes the review finds the same largest gap, so the follow-on work is named and priced here rather than discovered later.
Interface Mapping Pack
| What it costs | £4,000 to £8,000, fixed once the interface count is known. |
|---|---|
| Why it exists | Interface and field-level mapping is the gap the readiness review most often exposes as the biggest one. A diagram of two systems and an arrow is not a contract, and the fields are where the argument is. |
| What you get | A mapping workbook per interface, the same mapping as machine-readable JSON, and review notes calling out the assumptions each side is making. |
| Order of work | After the review, not instead of it. The review tells you whether this is the thing you actually need. |
Two other ways in
Both exist so the £3,000 review is never the only door. Keep to the review if you are unsure.
Paid advisory session
£350half day| Half day | £350. One problem, looked at properly. |
|---|---|
| Full day | £650. Several, or one with the people who own it in the room. |
| Good for | A single decision that is stuck, or a second opinion on an approach before it is committed. |
Fractional retainer
£1,300a month| What it is | 2 days a month, £1,300 a month. |
|---|---|
| Good for | A programme that needs the architecture view continuously rather than once, without adding a full-time head. |
| Cancelling | Monthly. It is a retainer, not a contract you have to escape. |
Read the checklist before you buy anything
The method, in public, free, with no sign-up and no email address asked for.
Cutover readiness checklist — 43 items across 7 sections
The checklist this review scores against: discovery and scope, configuration governance, interface contracts, master data, test readiness, cutover and hypercare. Each item says what to check and what it costs you when it is missed.
FREE 02Schema catalogue — 89 entities, 2,307 fields
A read-only extract of the entity and field catalogue behind the Schema Mapper, published as evidence of the depth this work is done at. The tool itself is behind a login.
FREEWhat is honest about this
This line is new. There is nothing to show you from other programmes, so judge the checklist and judge the conversation.
No engagement is described on this site, no organisation is named as a reference, and nothing here is taken from work done for somebody else — which is the same reason you would want it to be true if you engaged me. What you can judge instead is public and on this site: the 43-item checklist, the 89-entity catalogue extract, the prices, and half an hour of conversation about your own programme in which you will be able to tell quickly whether I know the work.
If the review would not help you, I will say so. That is cheaper for me than a £3,000 engagement that produces a document nobody needed.
