ERP implementations that actually go live on time and on budget
We have been on both sides of ERP projects - as operators and as consultants. We know where they go wrong, and how to keep them on track.
Why ERP projects fail
ERP projects have a well-earned reputation for running over time and over budget. The reason is almost always the same - insufficient business analysis upfront, poor change management, and vendors more interested in selling licences than delivering outcomes.
Experience from both sides
We have been on both sides of ERP projects - as operators running businesses on these systems and as consultants implementing them. That dual perspective means we know where projects go wrong, and how to keep them on track.
