Introduction

Enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems usually have a life expectancy of 15-20 years, so most organisations might not experience a full-term ERP implementation. However, at no other time will you have the opportunity to make large-scale, sweeping changes in how your organisation operates.

More than 75% of all ERP projects fail to deliver, leading to executives struggling with concerns like:

  • Have we derived the promised outcome from our ERP investment?
  • Have we selected the right solution and implementation partner?
  • Can our people learn and align with the needs of the ERP system?
  • Are the ERP and associated technology landscape still relevant?
  • Can we sustain these high-end technologies, considering IT is not our core business?
  • Will ERP completely change the way we work?
