Although contemporary literature on ERP Systems explain the relevance of End-User Analysts (EUA) at various spheres of post implementation space, we are yet to understand first, what explains End-User outcomes on Post Implementation Processes within ERP Systems. Also how and to what extent do End-Users involvement transform Post Implementation deployment outcomes. In minimizing perceptible projections in post implementation environments, we posit that End-User Analysts are strategically structured within post implementation environments to complete the profile of a robust futuristic implementation space within business structures. A distinct understanding of the root causes of implementation failures with Lead-users in sight will help minimize capital loss in both private and public sectors while mitigating against an organizations predisposition for risk. Our hypothesis is supported by multi-level structures consisting of three (3) organizations and thirty (30) respondents. Our research further suggests that End-User Analysts are of compelling value to a challenged implementation proposition. User Systems that are inflicted with failing systems, the value proposition could be the successful End-User who evolves to become the Lead User that has developed requisite skills to adapt rather than adopt lingering issues and present a fix pattern that works for challenged scenarios.
