Executive overview

Whether the accelerator can answer what the next wave will ask, and where the knowledge base is thin.

Can we answer the questions the next wave will ask?

Knowledge coverage — every wave, every process

Read down a column to watch a process mature across waves. Read across a row to find a wave's weak spots. Grey means the process is not needed or is not measurable from scope items.

Awaiting a decision — programme-wide

Every open item across all waves. Deployment preparation shows only those bearing on the unit you are looking at; this is the whole set.

10 open
DV-005
Deviation from the global cost centre hierarchy
deviation

No documented business reason has been logged. Open items entering a wave freeze are the main source of late design churn — this one should be closed before the next wave's design freeze.

Legal basis: none recorded

DV-006
Statutory actual costing for local books
deviation

A genuine legal requirement with no precedent anywhere in the evidence base — no earlier unit activated actual costing. This is not a deviation to refuse but a template extension to design, and it needs a first-hand workshop rather than an estimate.

Legal basis: Local statute requires actual costing for statutory reporting.

DV-010
Additional approval level for capital purchase orders
deviation

Presented as a legal requirement. On review the obligation is a group delegation-of-authority rule rather than statute, which makes it a parameter question rather than a design deviation. Precedent DV-004 already covers threshold variation.

Legal basis: none recorded

DV-011
Country-specific customer credit scoring model
deviation

Local credit practice differs materially from the pilot countries. No statutory basis has been produced. D-044 recorded credit management as adopted standard with no custom logic, so approving this would be the first departure from a decision that has held cleanly.

Legal basis: none recorded

DV-013
Withholding tax at document level
deviation

A genuine legal requirement with no precedent in the evidence base — no pilot country withholds at document level. This is a template extension to design, not a deviation to refuse, and it needs a first-hand workshop.

Legal basis: Local statute requires withholding to be calculated and reported per document rather than per period.

D-061
Statutory actual costing approach
pending

Three options under review. No precedent exists anywhere in the evidence base, so this needs a first-hand workshop rather than an estimate. Due before the wave design freeze.

D-062
US GAAP parallel ledger scope
pending

The programme has only ever run the IFRS group ledger. The US GAAP variants are the same scope item families in a flavour never exercised, so effort cannot be inferred from the first out.

D-093
Plant maintenance strategy scope
pending

Whether preventive maintenance plans are a template object or a site decision. The first out ran three sites with materially different asset ages, so no single answer emerged. Due before the next design freeze.

D-097
Consignment stock at customer sites
pending

Several APAC entities operate customer consignment, which no first-out entity did. There is no precedent to draw on and the scope item has never been activated, so this needs a first-hand workshop.

D-070
WP1 extraction approach
needs revision

First draft assumed PF1 extraction logic would transfer. Review found the field structures differ materially. Returned for rework — discovery must start well before the wave opens.

2 approval(s) carry no legal basis. The programme rule permits deviation only for local legal requirements, so each of these is a precedent a later site can cite. This is how a global template erodes — one reasonable-looking exception at a time.

Readiness — First out

4 units, 1,130 users. Weakest first — a triage view of the next wave, not the per-unit detail, which is on deployment preparation.

73% average

Workshop backlog — programme-wide

Scope items with no precedent anywhere, ranked by how many units they block. A unit's own unknowns are on its verdict step; this ranks them across all 25 so one workshop can clear many at once.

Wave plan

System first, then region. Click a wave to open its units.

The two bars are never averaged. The template is at its most settled exactly when migration knowledge resets, because the source system changes.

Lessons carried forward

A lesson only prevents recurrence once it is in the template.

Parallel-run burden

Legacy systems plus S4P, running together through cutover. Where operational strain lands.

Hypercare — what actually broke

Each event links to the lesson it produced and the decision whose confidence it changed.

DEMO DATA — illustrative content for concept demonstration. It does not represent actual customer data, and every figure stands in until programme data is loaded.
