PROJECT MANAGEMENT SERVICES
In July 2000, PDC implemented Lawson Software (Lawson) General Ledger, Accounts Payable, Cash Ledger, rojects & Activities, Procurement, Payroll and Human Resources (to support of payroll only), enterprise‐
P
wide. In December 2007, PDC adopted an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) strategy that is centered on the continued use and roll‐out of additional functionality of Lawson. As a result, PDC intends to invest in Lawson o meet the evolving needs of PDC. The first project towards that end was the build‐out of the Lawson Human
t
Resources module which went live in August 2008. In May 2008, PDC began a project to upgrade Lawson applications, systems foundation, and user interface to the most recent version to ensure the integrity of the system and establish a foundation to build out additional functionality. PDCs upgrade to Lawson version 9 will be complete in July 2009. After the upgrades are complete, PDC plans to roll out new functionality, creating unified systems and streamlining information n alignment with the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Strategy adopted by the PDC Executive Team in
i
December 2007. Also in May 2008, PDC decided that its chart of accounts should be restructured to more effectively manage and report its financial information in a manner consistent with business operations and its reorganized epartmental structure. This restructure of PDCs chart of accounts was done in tandem with the upgrade to
d
Lawson 9.
