In this episode, Anne sits down with Avery LaPan, Client Success Manager at EPRLive, to talk about what it really takes to guide NECA chapters and their partners through a successful implementation. From the first CBA review to full contractor adoption, Avery walks us through the hands-on, highly collaborative process of launching a digital reporting system and why communication, clarity, and curiosity matter just as much as software.

Whether you're managing a team or coordinating across multiple fund offices and locals, Avery shares practical insights, surprising challenges, and the moments that make it all worth it.
