A successful JD Edwards (JDE) implementation isn’t just about getting the technology right – it’s about preparing your people every step of the way. Join Atkore and Grant Thornton to learn how we embedded change management into the core of our project management approach to drive a smooth, people-centered ERP transformation.

In this session, we’ll walk through Atkore’s JDE journey, highlighting how change management wasn’t a separate workstream—it was a fully integrated part of the implementation strategy. From planning through go-live and beyond, we aligned change and project activities to anticipate resistance, build readiness, improve adoption, and speed up sustainment.

You’ll gain real-world insights into:

• How we structured change management alongside project milestones
• Tactics for aligning communications, training, and leadership engagement with the project timeline
• Lessons learned—what worked, what didn’t, and how we course-corrected in real time

Whether you’re planning or in the middle of a JDE implementation, this session will show you how to make change management a strategic driver—not an afterthought—and ensure your ERP investment delivers lasting value.
