Data migration is the long pole in the tent and the greatest risk to a new system’s go-live event. It also provides a unique opportunity to get the data right and keep it right. Balancing immediate needs versus long-range data governance goals is often lost as competing objectives and timelines work against the organisation.
Amino's Approach

We accelerate Discovery and Planning activities by delivering a clear roadmap and project plan to address the data requirements, complexities, and effort.

Key focus areas considered are:
- Risk Mitigation
- Accelerated go-live
