Frequently Asked Questions About ERP Selection

What are the key benefits of using an ERP selection service?

An ERP selection service provides a clear, structured approach to a complex decision. We help you avoid costly mistakes by defining your needs precisely and ensuring the chosen system aligns with your business goals. Our unbiased, expert guidance saves you significant time, reduces implementation risks, and helps you negotiate a better contract, ultimately ensuring your ERP investment delivers maximum value and a successful digital transformation.

We begin with a comprehensive discovery phase to understand your organization’s strategic goals and operational pain points. We then leverage our extensive knowledge of the ERP market to identify a shortlist of vendors that are the best fit. We guide you through vendor demonstrations, help you conduct thorough due diligence, and assist with contract negotiations. Our independent position ensures our recommendations are based solely on what’s best for your business, not any specific vendor.

The key difference is our vendor neutrality. Software vendors are committed to selling their specific product. As an independent consulting group, we have no ties to any particular vendor. This allows us to provide objective, unbiased advice and compare a wide range of solutions. Our sole focus is on your business and helping you find the right technology to achieve your goals, not on meeting a sales quota for a specific software.

The duration of the ERP selection process can vary depending on the size and complexity of your organization, but it typically ranges from 3 to 6 months. This timeline includes the initial discovery and planning, vendor shortlisting and demonstrations, and final contract negotiations. While it may seem like a lengthy process, a thorough selection is crucial for avoiding a failed implementation, which can be far more costly and time-consuming in the long run.
