The estimate for enterprise resource planning deployment that nobody challenged is usually the one that fails. Stakeholders withdraw support for planning deployment quietly before they withdraw it formally. The level assumes working familiarity with the project but no prior formal training in the project and portfolio delivery capability. Cases are chosen to expose the trade-offs in enterprise resource planning deployment rather than to illustrate ideal conditions. Moving this strand of project and portfolio delivery from written policy into daily practice is not achieved by a single decision. They acquire practical criteria for judging when planning deployment is working and when it is only appearing to. It concentrates on the parts of enterprise resource planning deployment that determine outcomes and treats the rest proportionately. Mature organisations treat planning deployment as a standing capability rather than a project that finishes. The programme closes with an action plan for the practice within project and portfolio delivery that each participant writes for their own organisation.
