Lean & Operational Excellence and Independent ERP Consultants

ERP systems collect a lot of data about an organisation’s operations. Business Intelligence (BI) can allow this data to be analysed and presented to support effective decision making. So why is BI often an afterthought in an ERP implementation?
 

Having decided that a new ERP system is the right move for your organisation, the next step is to select a system. Despite the consolidation in the ERP market over the past ten years, there is still a wide variety of choice. Identifying the system and implementation partner that best suits your business and budget is a critical step towards a successful implementation. This requires a structured selection process carefully managed according to agreed principles. Avoiding failure in this process means steering clear of the “Seven Deadly Sins of ERP Selection”.           

Data Migration is a key part of any ERP project. Identifying and tackling tasks that can be addressed early improves the prospect of a smooth system cutover as well as the ability of the ERP to drive value in the business from the time it goes live.
