The most important of corporate business solutions is ERP software.
It is of great importance to be able to survive in the face of rapidly advancing technology and digitalization-based developments all over the world, to be able to manage processes and operations more effectively, and not to fall behind in critical issues such as cost, profitability and reporting.
It is known that ERP software provides companies with serious benefits such as sustainability, performance-based monitoring, internal audit and efficient resource use. Obtaining the process management and system infrastructure that provides these benefits is only possible by taking the right steps and approaches. Otherwise, it is not easy to reach the comfort zone in question.
It is seen that when most companies enter the ERP preference process, they first focus on the brand of the ERP software, and give importance to criteria such as the name and brand of the software and whether there are many companies using the brand in question. This approach leads decision makers to think limitedly, to rush and therefore to wrong decisions regarding processes that are not fully analyzed.
The most important stage in ERP projects is to conduct process analyses by considering all factors and examining the internal and external environmental factors related to the business. In other words, it is the most detailed presentation of the need. If the detailed analysis and evaluations in question are not made in the required depth, the project's chance of success decreases.
Regardless of the ERP brand, when the implementation phase is reached, operational disruptions caused by the missing headings due to the faulty approaches made in the process analysis will begin to emerge one by one. At this point, it is seen that the authorities involved in the project process tend to blame the flaws caused by the missing points on the ERP software.
Choosing the ERP software that can meet the requirements of the business skeleton to be obtained by fully analyzing and presenting the need will yield much more successful results. Regardless of the brand of the ERP software, companies should first give importance to analyzes that will reconsider their own ways of doing business during this process.
A decision to be made regarding the preference of the software that is thought to meet the need without determining what you need is very likely to result in failure. For this reason, there is no such thing as a failed ERP. It would not be wrong to say that there are unsuccessfully executed projects.
