The transition to ISO 20022 messaging standards represents a fundamental transformation in global financial infrastructure, requiring comprehensive project management frameworks to navigate complex technical, organizational, and regulatory challenges. This article presents a systematic approach to managing enterprise payment system migrations, encompassing strategic stakeholder alignment, technical architecture design, phased implementation strategies, and governance mechanisms. Through an article analysis of industry-wide migration experiences, the framework addresses critical aspects including stakeholder ecosystem mapping, unified roadmap development, interface inventory methodologies, vendor dependency management, simulation-based testing protocols, and compliance tracking systems. The article synthesizes best practices from global implementations, highlighting the importance of structured governance models, comprehensive testing strategies, and continuous improvement processes. Key findings demonstrate that organizations adopting phased migration approaches with robust fallback mechanisms, dedicated simulation environments, and formal vendor management offices achieve significantly higher success rates compared to traditional implementation methods. The framework emphasizes the critical role of change management, communication strategies, and knowledge transfer in ensuring sustainable transformation outcomes while meeting regulatory deadlines and maintaining operational stability throughout the migration journey.
