How to Run Fit-Gap in Canias ERP
Fit-gap is not a slide title; it shapes project outcomes. If standard vs gap, acceptance criteria, and cost/schedule impact are not clear, the project drifts later. This guide summarizes the fit-gap logic and what to watch on the Canias side.
Within the Canias cluster
This guide is strongest when read as part of the wider Canias track: landing, steering, fit-gap, and go-live together form a clearer decision framework.
Table of contents
Standard, gap, development, process change
Standard: the need is covered by the product. Gap: not covered; response may be configuration, customization, or process change. Decisions must be written.
- Fit: business need covered by standard.
- Gap: not covered; options must be compared.
- Customization raises cost and maintenance; prefer standard where reasonable.
- Process change is sometimes the healthiest option.
Link to acceptance criteria
Each gap needs clear acceptance criteria; when delivery is accepted must be written.
- Gap decision is tied to acceptance criteria.
- Vague criteria lead to disputes later.
What to watch on the Canias side
Module scope, TROIA needs, integration points, and the data model all affect gaps.
- Module and license scope explicit.
- TROIA development cost evaluated separately.
- Integration points on the gap list.
Common mistakes
Not writing gaps; not showing cost/schedule impact; leaving decisions verbal.
- Gap list vague or incomplete.
- Cost/schedule impact not reported.
- No decision record.
