11. Building the Business Case for Upgrading
• Evaluate the new 12.1 features in the products you are
currently running
– Opportunities to eliminate customizations
– Greater flexibility to match the needs of your business
– Opportunities for additional automation and process improvement
• Look for adjacent products that might add value
– Many products are much stronger at the 12.1 level than they were
in 11.5.10
– Adding modules is low cost since you are leveraging the
implementation work you have already done
– Some customers have justified the upgrade primarily by the need
to get to the 12.1 level so they could implement additional
products
