Mastering the Art of Adopting R and Python: Innovative Strategies for Effective Change Management
summary
Claims a repeatable roadmap used at Janssen/Johnson & Johnson to replace SAS with R (and Python referenced in the description) by running changes trial‑by‑trial, using pilot projects, SMEs and escalation rules, and measuring adoption via the statistical computing environment. Planning covers five steps (what/who/why/concerns/when), implementation uses SharePoint, a CAMAS SAS→R comparison, containers and a development environment, and sustaining relies on support teams and branding like Sail To R and Sail.R; the approach reports steady adoption and selective exceptions for time‑critical trials.
