The questions to answer first
NetSuite can be the right move. The details decide it.
Cloud ERP promises speed and simplicity. For manufacturers and distributors, success depends on fit, scope and how the project is run.
Scope
What is in the box and what is not?
Modules, add-ons and third-party apps change the cost and the project far more than the subscription price suggests.
Partner
Who will implement it?
The implementation partner shapes the outcome as much as the software does.
Data
How clean is our data?
Item, customer and BOM data has to be ready before it moves to the cloud.
Process
Should we adapt to the system?
Deciding where to adopt standard processes and where to configure keeps the project on track.
Value
How will we measure success?
Without a business case, there is no clear way to tell if the investment is paying off.
