Role of Senior User Representatives: The senior user role on the project board is crucial for ensuring
that the needs and perspectives of end-users are adequately represented during the transition.
ZYXS as Internal Service Provider: As an internal service provider, ZYXS has a comprehensive
understanding of the user requirements and operational contexts within ZYX companies.
User Representation: ZYXS is best positioned to represent the users from all ZYX companies due to
their internal role and existing relationships with the user base. This ensures that user needs are
considered in decision-making processes.
Expected Benefits and Resource Gaps: While ensuring the project meets expected benefits and
highlighting resource gaps are important, these are typically responsibilities shared across the project
board and not specifically tied to the senior user role.
Toolset Acceptance Criteria: Providing input into toolset acceptance criteria is a specific task, but it
does not encompass the broader responsibility of user representation.
Conclusion: Representing the users from all ZYX companies on the project board ensures that the
transition project aligns with user needs and expectations, promoting successful implementation and
user satisfaction.
