Does anyone have experience with a CMS migration? I inherited a migration plan with very little context. Any recommendations or best practices on how to move forward? Who should be included as stakeholders?

Does the plan mention vendor selection or recommended cms platform?

Look at the scope and see their rationale as to why they picked it. Engineering familiarity as in its mostly plug and play? Or just that it’s a software the company engineers are familiar with it?

Since you’ve inherited and aren’t confident yet in signing yet, then ask the CMSs account manager to walk you through a presentation again and ask as many questions as you can that will ease your mind.

These are great question… all pointing to what is the scope of work for the migration? Can this be handled digitally, or is there a lot of copy/paste/restyle that will need to be done.

In addition to these question what is the cutoff of data that needs to be migrated, e.g. is there an age/date of data that doesn’t need to be migrated to the new site?

Is It a headless CMS? I mean, the pages are build into the cms or is the cms just serving content to external pages?

If the cms is working on headless Mode you need tu upload all the content to the new cms and keep the old keys in the new one, replace the API calls and point to the new ones, if it's done carefully it could be more or less transparent... It should be 80% IT project

If the pages are build into the cms then its a total new site, the old content wont match with the components available in the cms, old pages will need to be discontinued and rebuild from 0. Then It's a project more related to UX, visual dessigners, marketing, SEO...

Are they nearly wanting to update to the latest version of the CMS? If yes it's going to be just vendor selection and management. If not, you need to figure out the scope pronto cause that can make anything from a rebuild to a whole new site.
