Implementation Service FAQs

Are external consultants required for Yardi implementations?

Not always — but most organizations benefit from external support, particularly for complex modules, integrations, or first-time implementations.

Can an internal team deliver a Yardi implementation on its own?

Yes, but it often comes with trade-offs: longer timelines, a higher risk of rework, and greater reliance on support post go-live.

When should companies bring in external consultants?

Ideally, early — during requirements and design. Bringing them in late often means correcting decisions rather than guiding them.

How can organizations avoid becoming dependent on external consultants?

By prioritizing knowledge transfer throughout the project, not just at the end. Internal team involvement in design and configuration is key.

What’s the most common mistake companies taking on a Yardi implementation make?

Underestimating the effort required from internal teams. Even with external support, internal engagement is critical.

How should implementation responsibilities be split between internal and external teams?

Follow this simple rule:
  • Internal: requirements, priorities, decision-making
  • External: design guidance, configuration, delivery structure

Does using external consultants increase cost?

In the short term, yes. In the long term, it often reduces costs by avoiding delays, rework, and inefficient configurations.

What does good Yardi implementation collaboration look like?

Regular checkpoints, shared ownership of decisions, and transparency on risks — not a hand-off between teams.
