The following are key success factors when it comes to the ERP selection team.

 

1.       An Emphasis on Project Management: Due to the complex nature of an ERP implementation, the team must be led by a person experienced in project management. A dedicated, experienced project manager can make the difference between success and failure. More than a part-time task master, the project manager provides leadership for accountability, transparency, and decisiveness. The entire ERP implementation team should keep a focus on excellent project management techniques.

2.       A Commitment to Apply the Appropriate Resources:  Companies must apply significant internal and external resources for ERP implementation. From data migration to user training, from a phased pilot to “go live” deployment, the correct vendor, consultant and internal business user resources are critical. Many companies underestimate the required resources especially during critical phases of the project. It is advised to never trivialize the scope and scale of an ERP implementation. Success follows when a company allocates the proper amount of time and resources.

3.       Collaboration with IT:  An ERP implementation affects the whole enterprise, including the extended supply chain. However, the IT team needs to be at the center of it all. The project team must build in collaboration, communication and coordination with the IT department.

4.       A Focus on Change Management: An ERP implementation brings with it drastic change for the entire enterprise.  It is important for the ERP implementation team to know how the work force will react to a new ERP system, how to gain consensus from all team members, and how sponsors can lead their people to success. The team sets the pace in implementing ERP for lasting business change within an organization.

 

5.       A Focus on Education:  This point can’t be stressed enough. An ERP implementation is only be as good as an end-user’s ability to operate it. The team must design workshops and instruction to teach all business users how to utilize the system to its full potential. Implementation experts often suggest short, targeted training sessions. This allows users the time to try what they have learned and to develop ideas for process modifications and system optimization.
