How We Develop an Intelligent ERP Plan (PDP)
PROCESS
We start the process section with meetings to both identify and visually document your most common business processes. Processes like 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.
“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)“
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.
DATA
PRODUCTIVITY
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.
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.
FIT
ADOPT
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 break-fix issues, assist with new configurations as you grow, or simply to answer questions.
