This book presents comprehensive strategies that enable organizations to take charge of their Enterprise Resource Planning projects to drive success. The book is a detailed guide for making informed decisions during each project phase.
The history of implementing ERP systems has shown that leaving the fate of your Enterprise Resource Planning project in the hands of software consultants and vendors may only create a false sense of security. While the help of consultants is usually required, they are not all-knowing, have a limited ability to control the keys to project success, and are often the beneficiaries of cost overruns. When it comes to software vendors, their sales people will be long gone when it comes time to go-live with the new system.
The book also contains many tips to select ERP software, manage service providers, transfer software knowledge, redesign business processes, develop the right implementation strategies, establish a realistic schedule and budget, and properly test the new system. It also addresses the various application and system infrastructure deployment options, emerging technology trends, and the implications from a software selection, implementation and on-going support standpoint. The information in this book is applicable to new implementations and system upgrades.
It was recently named the No. 1 book for ERP Project Managers by Book Authority.
