ERP change management is often overlooked. A great deal of work has gone into sourcing the right ERP solution for your business, getting stakeholder buy-in for the ultimate decision, and selecting the right ERP software vendor.
Enterprise resource planning software links most of today’s business management systems, and thus ERP software implementation is a necessary part of today’s digital transformation for manufacturing and distribution companies. To remain competitive and relevant in a fast-paced, globally competitive economy, senior executives know that an ERP system implementation with new technologies is unavoidable.
Acquiring complicated ERP software and enterprise solutions is, for lack of a better word, complicated. And negotiating the best-possible deal is difficult – and not something organizations do often. Most companies end up paying more than they should – for years. But it doesn’t have to be that way.
