Start with one plan

You don't have to migrate everything at once. Pick one representative plan, model it in the new system, and run it in parallel for a cycle. Parallel runs build confidence and surface edge cases safely.

Once the numbers match, you've proven the model — and the rest follows the same pattern.

A week-by-week shape

Week one: model the org and the pilot plan. Week two: load data and validate calculations. Week three: parallel run and reconcile. Week four: cut over and onboard reps to self-serve statements.

Thirty days in, you've replaced a fragile file with a governed system — and the team trusts it because they watched it prove itself.
