End-to-end programme delivery for a forecasting tool rolled out across eight Carrefour locations — alongside Oracle database migration management for a 100-user sales team and full KPI implementation governance, with test management and adoption tracking applied throughout.
Carrefour required a structured rollout of a sales forecasting tool across eight retail locations. The technology decision had been made — the question was whether the rollout could be delivered consistently across sites, in a way that integrated with an in-flight Oracle database migration affecting a 100-user sales team.
The risk was not the software. The risk was fragmented adoption — a forecasting tool that arrived in eight different formats, owned by eight different local stakeholders, with no shared definition of how to measure whether it was working.
The brief was therefore broader than deployment. It required genuine programme governance across distributed sites, an Oracle migration handled in parallel without disrupting the sales team, and a KPI framework that gave Carrefour leadership an honest read on how the tool was performing the day after go-live — not six months later.
Stakeholder interviews across head office and site teams. Current-state assessment of forecasting practice and Oracle estate. Programme risk register and scope definition.
Workstream definition, governance model, milestone schedule, KPI framework and test strategy — all agreed before a single line of deployment activity began.
Sprint-based delivery, structured UAT cycles per site, and integrated defect resolution between forecasting and Oracle workstreams. Stakeholder reviews at every programme increment.
End-user training delivered ahead of each site's go-live, followed by a structured hypercare period — adoption tracked against the KPI framework rather than assumed from absence of complaints.
The forecasting tool went live across all eight Carrefour locations on the agreed schedule, and the 100-user Oracle migration completed without disrupting live sales activity. UAT closed with zero critical defects outstanding at go-live for either workstream.
More importantly, the KPI framework defined at programme design meant Carrefour leadership had a coherent read on adoption from day one — not a six-month wait followed by a survey. Forecasting accuracy, time-to-decision, and user adoption were tracked against the same definitions across all eight sites.
The programme established a repeatable model for site-led technology rollouts inside the organisation — one in which deployment, migration, test, and measurement were owned together rather than handed between teams.
The discipline our partner brought to this programme — running the deployment, migration, test, and KPI workstreams against a single governance model — meant we could trust the rollout instead of chasing it.
