Implementation:
Business Process Reengineering is a pre-requisite for going ahead with a
powerful planning tool, ERP. An in depth BPR study has to be done before taking
up ERP. Business Process Reengineering brings out deficiencies of the existing
system and attempts to maximize productivity through restructuring and
re-organizing the human resources as well as divisions and departments in the
organization.
Implementing an ERP module in an enterprise is never a cake-walk. Most ERP
experts estimate that the total time required for a successful implementation
can take from 18 to 24 months. The long time frame accounts for a necessary
phasing of the software across the enterprise because an immediate switch in
all levels of the organization has the potential to yield disastrous results.
Also, as ERP software depends heavily on its end users, it is advisable, that a
company gradually introduces the software, department by department. This will
allow for kinks in the system to be worked out in small chunks rather than
opening the business up for organization-wide failures as users acclimate to a
new way of doing business. Gradually stepping the business into the system also
provides the opportunity for the first sets of end users to gain expertise and
help train new users, thereby reducing the strain on IT professionals and
consultants during the latter stages of implementation. Training is undeniably
the most important part of a successful ERP implementation.
ERP software solutions have the ability to make a business more profitable as it allows automation of most of the functional business processes across the enterprise. Knowing this fact, more and more companies across the globe are offering customized ERP
software solutions to their clients that are helping them to streamline their business
and be more productive.
