Salesforce Hypercare for the First 90 Days

Go-live is a milestone. Ninety days decide operating system vs avoided login. Hypercare keeps senior practitioners engaged until usage matches charter outcomes.

Supports Salesforce consulting and adoption without shelfware. Non-negotiable on programs like Cornerstone.

Before and during go-live

Freeze non-critical changes, finalize role training, dry-run migration, publish executive outcomes, name champions and war room. Week one: blockers, disable competing legacy entry, log workarounds as backlog.

Days 1–30 and 31–90

Daily hygiene checks; office hours; remove blocking required fields (guide); owned integration error queues. Then weekly manager scorecards, advanced training, CAB for revenue-critical releases.

Day 90 exit

Managers coach in-CRM; forecast debates deals not data; new hires trained in two weeks; errors age in hours. Transition to monthly debt reviews. Gate AI on CRM trust — CRM data wins for AI.

Metrics that prove the change worked

Track field completion on the stages that matter, pipeline hygiene (stale deals, missing next steps), login is optional vanity — managers coaching from Salesforce without weekly CSV exports is the real signal. Publish a one-page scorecard for ninety days.

When AI or automation is next, gate it on these metrics. Dirty CRM makes every agent look broken.

How Foundation5 runs the work

We charter outcomes first, cut fields and automation that do not serve them, train by role, and stay through hypercare. Reimplementation is on the table when layered debt exceeds the cost of a clean model — especially after acquisitions.

When you are ready to apply this on your stack, schedule a consultation with Foundation5 — we stay accountable to named business outcomes, not tool checklists.
