#10 reasons why tour operator software implementation fails
?Have you ever wondered why software
implementation fails?
?Have you ever been afraid of buying a travel
software because of the possibility it might not work, having spent your money on nothing at
the end?
Problem:
Spending large sum of money on travel software that fails to implement in their business routine.
#1Weak support and organization coming from the Management
The successful implementation start and ends at the ”top”!
#2Improperly defined goals of the
project
Give employees time to accept the change and create goals
that are SMART!
#3Poor research of travel software and
not knowing what it’s all about
Prepare yourself by reading different materials (articles, blog posts, news portals)!
Invest the time in finding the best solution for their business process and make an effort to study different software systems!
#4Buying a system that isn’t good for
your business process
Poor selection of travel software that does not fit the organization’s requirements can cost you 10 times more.
That’s because:
a) You are trying to get the system at the lowest price possible
b) You don’t know what your employees need and are basing your decisions on what you see on random web sites
c) You’re in a hurry to buy the first piece of software you found on the internet
d) You’re not including employees in the process of selecting a travel
software solution
#5Lack of involving employees and not
defining project manager
Engaging employees enables them to get acquainted with processes, work responsibilities and organizational activities!
#6Poor information flow and
communication
Interaction of all parties involved is crucial!
#7Unrealistic expectations from your employees and the system itself
Give your implementator time to adjust all changes wanted and don’t rush them with
questions like
„Is it ready yet?“
or
„Are you finished, do it ASAP!“
Asking for too many customizations right away can postpone the project deadline and cost even more...
#8Not following the timeline plan or insisting
on your own timeline plan
Don’t find excuses to miss out on meetings!
Send needed documents and information!
Respond to emails!
Don’t have huge gaps between trainings!
Trying to change the plan because you think that you want to sell something tomorrow is
BAD...
#9Missing out on trainings or not having
trainings
Forcing employees to stay late in the office and listen carefully
during training meetings is a
questionable idea (!?)
Be careful that the software vendor company offers proper trainings!
#10Not taking the time to upload data
Prolonging the upload makes it even worse!
Plan your actions!
Your employees will forget what they learned on the
trainings.
You’ll need to pay for the trainings once again!
The goal is: START USING THE SYSTEM!
YES, we do create, advise, educate, train, provide and implement integrated comprehensive business
solutions based on information technologies!
