Job description

Owns integration architecture, data conversion and migration, and data quality across the move from the current ERP portfolio to the new platform.

ENGAGEMENT OVERVIEW

Client is replacing and consolidating its ERP portfolio (Tyler Munis, Infor Lawson, OpenGov, UKG Kronos) across Finance, HCM and Budget, starting with HR/payroll and capital asset tracking and depreciation off Lawson HCM (go-live required by end of 2029). Dimension Consulting would serve as the County's vendor-agnostic ERP Transformation Journey Partner, covering assessment, requirements, ERP product and integrator selection support, and implementation oversight and QA through go-live and stabilization.

LOCATION / WORK MODEL

U.S.-based only (no offshore). Remote/hybrid is acceptable for appropriate activities as long as deliverables and responsiveness meet County expectations. Onsite presence at County offices in North Carolina is set by the County for each project phase and activity. Must be willing to travel to County offices as needed throughout the engagement.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Define integration expectations and data conversion/migration requirements for the ERP RFP.
• Help develop the solution architecture and the integrations catalog, including the API strategy.
• Lead the integration strategy, design, mapping and detailed documentation across enterprise systems, including the County's non-Lawson applications.
• Develop the data conversion and migration strategy for moving current data to the new ERP platform(s).
• Support the HR data quality audit (duplicate records, missing fields, etc.) and drive data cleansing readiness.
• Oversee the build, the conversion of production data, and the load into the new ERP system.
• Plan and validate 2–3 end-to-end mock cutovers, including data conversion and reconciliation, and contribute to the mock and final cutover/go-live playbooks.
• Track integration testing issue resolution logs through end-to-end testing and go-live.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Demonstrated experience and success with ERP data conversions, integrations and platform migrations.
• Hands-on experience with data conversion complexity: multiple source systems, data volume and reconciliation methods.
• Experience in implementation, data migration and conversion management.
• Integration and business process design expertise.
• Public sector ERP experience (weighted highest in the client's evaluation) and a record of go-live and stabilization success on past ERP projects.
• Vendor-agnostic advisory capability across multiple ERP vendor ecosystems. Must be U.S.-based and willing to travel. Minimum years of experience: TBD (the client sets none).

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS / CERTIFICATIONS

• Experience converting data from the County's current platforms (Infor Lawson, Tyler Munis, OpenGov, UKG Kronos).
• Experience with North Carolina local governments, ideally a large county.
• Certifications: TBD (the client names no individual certifications). ERP vendor, cloud provider, security standards, ISO and CMMI credentials are a plus.

INDEPENDENCE REQUIREMENT (MUST-HAVE)

MUST-HAVE: The candidate must be independent of ERP software vendors and system integrators. Candidates must disclose any vendor reseller or investment relationships, or system integrator partnerships, that could influence recommendations.
