How We Develop an Intelligent ERP Plan (PDP)

PROCESS

1-min

A system cannot be improved or managed by anyone who does not understand the system. A leader must understand all parts and optimize the system as a whole (DEMING)”

We start by identifying and visually documenting your most common business processes. Processes such as Order to Cash, Procure to Pay, and Record to Report. We continue to work with you until you can visually see your end-to-end business processes with an eye towards efficiency improvement.

After mapping business processes, we focus on the information that “FEEDS” your business system. This data is commonly referred to as “MASTER DATA”, and it must be accurate to realize the true business benefits(s) of your new ERP system. Lack of accurate master data is consistently listed as a top reason ERP implementations fail.

PRODUCTIVITY

3-min

The final stage of the PDP is called PRODUCTIVITY. This is where we work with you to document the most important reports, dashboards, legacy interfaces, and forms needed for your new ERP system. Forms and interfaces are listed as the top reasons for ERP implementation failures. This includes the unbiased support of middleware and reporting tools such as Microsoft Power BI, SNOWFLAKE, Inc., Tableau Software, and Dell Boomi.

We now have all the information necessary for qualified software vendors to demonstrate how their solution meets your specific business requirements. We facilitate the ERP vendor demonstrations and let them show us how their technology matches your business processes, using your master data and your reports.

Once the right ERP solution is selected, it is time to adopt that system into your business ecosystem. Your team will leverage the PDP to configure your processes, accurately migrate master data, and create decision making reports and dashboards. Your employees receive customized training on their specific roles and responsibilities to streamline efficiencies and communication.

Your business ERP system is live, and your team is up and running on their new ERP system. We are there to support any system break-fix issues, assist with new configurations as you grow, and answer your questions.
