Red-to-green turnaround

IFS Project Rescue

Get your stalled or failing IFS project back on track.

IFS project rescue is the rapid stabilisation and turnaround of an IFS implementation that is over budget, behind schedule, or failing to go live — bringing in senior IFS expertise to diagnose root causes and recover the program.

Key takeaways
  • Most red IFS projects fail on governance, scope and data — not the software.
  • A two-week diagnostic usually reveals whether to fix, re-baseline or re-architect.
  • Senior, hands-on IFS people recover projects faster than adding more junior capacity.

When an IFS programme goes red, the cost of inaction compounds weekly. EX10 specialises in turning red projects green — we step into troubled implementations, find the real root cause (scope, data, architecture, governance or capability), and rebuild a credible path to go-live. It is the work we were founded to do.

Signs you need this

  • Go-live has slipped repeatedly with no reliable new date
  • Budget is overrun and the business has lost confidence
  • Over-customisation has made the system fragile and hard to upgrade
  • Data migration or integration keeps failing in testing

How we deliver

  1. 1

    Rapid assessment

    A focused diagnostic of scope, solution design, data, integrations, governance and team capability — typically inside two weeks.

  2. 2

    Root-cause & recovery plan

    We separate symptoms from causes and produce a realistic, prioritised recovery plan with a defensible go-live path.

  3. 3

    Stabilise & rebuild

    Senior architects and PMs step in to fix the critical issues — simplifying customisations, fixing data and integrations, resetting governance.

  4. 4

    Land the go-live

    We drive cutover readiness, hypercare and knowledge transfer so the recovery sticks after we leave.

FAQ

IFS Project Rescue — questions, answered

Can a failing IFS implementation really be saved?

In most cases, yes. The majority of red IFS projects are recoverable once the true root cause is found and senior IFS expertise is applied — outright re-starts are rare.

How fast can you assess our project?

Our rapid assessment is typically completed within two weeks, ending with a clear recovery plan and a defensible go-live path.

Do you take over from our current partner?

We can lead the recovery, augment your existing team, or advise from alongside — whatever de-risks your go-live fastest.
