Preparing for an ERP customization

Review your business processes - It’s important to relook your processes to ensure that you will get the most out of your ERP software.

Identify current software being used - Look at the other software that your company is using and identify the roles that you would want to use from those software so you can make a seamless transition or integration.
Identify the reporting that is crucial to your business - Determine which reports you are currently using and that ones that you will require.

Identify the users of your ERP system - Chart out the users who will be using the ERP system and classify them by name and job function. These roles should be defined as per their business processes and the job roles.
Filter out redundant data - Get rid of products and data that is no longer manufactured, previous vendor records and old customer data.
 

The next generation of ERP

While ERP systems can automate various parts of your business, integrating them with emerging technologies like Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) can help further transform your business operations.

For instance, ERP systems can optimize Robotics Process Automation (RPA) to eliminate repetitive, rule-based tasks and digital assistants and bots to help you serve customers better. And predictive analytics from machine learning can support you with real-time decision making.

Common ERP implementation failures

Implementing ERP can be a drastic change for any company, which is why choosing the right ERP partner is imperative.

1. 1. Absence of strategic management planning – When an organization decides to get an ERP customization, the first step is having a clear strategic roadmap and a goal that needs to be met. Having a clear goal implies characterizing the money related advantages, essential business forms, and due dates in advance. Which is why having a robust strategic management planning process is key to avoid any implementation failures.
   2. Over-customization– More often than not, customizations can be the main risk area in an ERP implementation. Which is why a tremendous amount of customization can often break the ERP system causing multiple ERP performance issues.
   3. Absence of experienced project managers – Over the years, it has been made clear that activities that require in-depth software expertise, usually require experienced project managers.The project manager should be a functioning head pushing for expertise, transparency, responsibility, and conclusiveness.
   4. Absence of framework testing One of the key results of a successful ERP implementation is robust testing. Testing helps in checking whether the framework meets your business needs and creates the yield you need. Reducing the testing may leave multiple ERP defects undiscovered.
