The implementation of an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system is a complex and high-stakes endeavor for any organization. While ERP solutions have the potential to revolutionize business processes and provide valuable insights, they can also be challenging to adopt and utilize effectively.
A lot can go wrong when an ERP system goes live. That’s why we’ve created our 9-step ERP implementation go-live checklist for a smooth, seamless go-live. Critical severity defects, security holes and other technical problems can cause disruption, wreak havoc on operations, bring your business to a dead stop, and even result in multi-million-dollar lawsuits. With careful planning and process, however, your go-live can be a smooth, seamless experience.
The IT department and the C-suite do not own (and may never interact with) your core business processes. So the project team should include key people—end users and functional managers—from across your organization who are regularly involved in those processes.
Organizations invest in an ERP software system to enable greater execution and efficiency. So it makes no sense to implement a solution that simply automates your existing systems and processes.
A modern ERP solution can supercharge your organization. But its implementation is one of the most complex and high-risk projects your organization will ever undertake. And it is extremely easy to make mistakes.
As U.S. companies continue the transition to remote work, possibly for the long term, ERP project teams continue to face significant challenges in management, coordination, communication and collaboration. And organizations that planned to start a much-needed ERP project are wondering whether to proceed or wait until the day – Sometime next year? – when their people can return to the office.
