Moving to the Cloud

Key considerations for healthcare providers

In this paper, KPMG aims to guide healthcare providers as they get ready to transition their health systems from on-premises to cloud Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP). To realize the benefits of Cloud ERP, healthcare providers should consider several factors to carefully select a cloud ERP platform and implementation partner. The key steps organizations should consider when moving to the cloud include the following:

  • Define and develop your target operating model
  • Build project governance and capacity
  • Define target outcomes
  • Select your Cloud ERP system and implementation partner

Choosing a cloud-based ERP is a critical decision for healthcare organizations. Establishing priorities for operating model changes, project governance, planning for appropriate resources, and defining target outcomes prior to selecting a technology platform is critical for success. With more than 30 healthcare provider-specific projects in the past four years, KPMG is the industry implementation partner of choice to guide organizations through their journey to Cloud readiness.
