Appointing an IPv6 project manager in a company that wants to implement IPv6 is crucial, as otherwise just lots of talking is usually involved and no real work is done. If you appoint an IPv6 project manager make sure you assign him a task to create an implementation plan with clear milestones and delivery dates and also the means to execute it.

Such a project manager’s responsibilities should become less over time. IPv6 should not be one person’s responsibility but something that becomes a normal part of the company’s workflows. Introducing IPv6 in the enterprise is a project. Once it is introduced it must not be considered “special” anymore.
