The decision to introduce an ERP system for the first time or to replace an existing legacy system is in many cases a strategic one that looks to the future.
ERP project: Challenge accepted
Whoever decides on an ERP project faces a challenge. So how do you get started?
Besides the obvious advantages, there are also reservations and risks that should ideally be dealt with before the project starts.
Advantages
Increasing efficiency
Process optimisation in the course of an ERP project also improves efficiency.
Data creates knowledge
A solid database enables good business decisions.
Scalability
Modern ERP systems remain flexible and grow with the requirements of an SME.
Future viability
An ERP system means digitalisation and is an investment in the future.
Risks
Missing resources
An ERP implementation is an investment and requires resources such as time and money.
Excessive demands
If companies want to manage the implementation themselves and on the side, it can be too much and fail.
As you can see, for us the advantages clearly outweigh the disadvantages and these are just a few that we could name. So in most cases, the introduction of an ERP system is to be recommended.
