Untangled
State and local governments provide vital services to their citizens and keep them safe. They are also one of the largest employers in the country. They employ about 14 million people in the US, not including public schools and hospitals. However, they’re also wrought with antiquated systems, broken processes, paperwork overwhelm, lack of transparency, and underutilization of intelligent technologies.
If you are a municipal leader, everyday citizen, or work for a state or local government across the US, you’ve come to the right place! Welcome to Untangled, a podcast for municipal leaders, IT managers, CIOs, and city or county council members that focuses on trends in government IT and its current best practices and challenges. Hosted by Abhijit Verekar, the show features special guests from various municipal agencies across the US, team members at Avèro Advisors, and other experienced professionals in the field to share their insights on how to untangle problems and make the Government more innovative and more efficient.

The 90-Day ERP Check: Warning Signs That Predict Project Failure
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Most ERP failures don’t come out of nowhere. They announce themselves early — usually within the first 90 days.
In this episode of Untangled, we break down why the first three months of an ERP implementation determine the entire trajectory of the project. From vendor staffing substitutions and early scope conflicts to filtered communication and executive disengagement, the same warning signs appear again and again — long before budgets explode and timelines collapse.
We walk through real public-sector examples, explain why organizations miss these signals, and outline what leaders can still do while leverage exists. Early intervention is uncomfortable, but late intervention is expensive — financially, politically, and organizationally.
If you’re within your first 90 days, this episode is an early warning system. If you’re past them, it’s a diagnostic you can’t afford to ignore.
