That’s very true for data migration projects, another big factor is not buying in business users that lead to adaption failures to new platforms.

"If you don’t have an automated way to track dependencies, get ahead of the problem. Ask every team that relies on your data warehouse to submit a list of what they need migrated—set a deadline, and hold them to it."

Alternatively, look carefully at whether a metadata data catalog will address a good portion of the dependency analysis that you need, one-demand and in realtime. Depending on the technology and the catalog vendor, often a catalog alleviates a good amount of the documentation burden on dependency analysis and understanding end-to-end.
