Blog 4 key aspects if you choose for customizations in ERP

22/09/2017 - Peter Gerhardt

If you, as a customer, opt for an industry-specific ERP system, you usually do so because of the following reasons: -   These are proven successful solutions, tailored to your industry. -   The supplier guarantees it works properly and provides support. -   Upgrades are handled by the supplier, the software keeps improving. -   And important: you do not want customizations anymore. Despite the above reasons, you will find out during the implementation that there is something you miss in the software. Something you cannot do without. Something that can not be solved by changing the process. Something that has not been acknowledged throughout the entire project. Something that has to be developed. In other words;...

An ERP implementation is a time-consuming project. One of the most important aspects in order to turn it into a success is 'focus'. Do not try to include everything in the project, do not hang on too much on details or minor issues and be determined when it comes to making decisions. Do not put everything in ERP ERP software is comprehensive, but not the perfect solution to everything that goes on in your organization.
