ERP implementation tips

ERP is well within the reach of most of the companies

THE time is an important factor as far as an ERP implementation is concerned. Companies should also be equipped with abilities to face whatever shortcomings they may encounter with. Implementation methodologies must not only satisfy the customer, but also must boost the confidence of the users.

There is also a confusion prevailing among the top decision makers that whether ERP implementation be carried out module wise or all the modules at one go? Before taking a concrete decision on this regarding the management must make a thorough study of the prevailing situation in their organization. This is because the ground situation varies and depends on each organization.

Mostly decision on this depends on the readiness audit result, available strength of consulting human power - both internal and external - relevance of ERP at various sites, timeframe, and the budget. But it is highly recommended that the organization should go for the implementation of all the modules at one time at one site, and then go for roll out strategy for all sites.

There is also a wrong concept about the BPR and ERP system. The main doubt persist in the mind of many decision makers is whether the organization should first carry out BPR and then implement ERP, or vice versa. Actually, one has to understand that the physical form of the BPR concept is the ERP system. In some organizations where BPR is carried out first then ERP was implemented. In all these places, the BPR document was thrown into dustbin and new 'to be document' was prepared suitable to ERP.

Such cases clearly show that BPR benefits as such don't exist without ERP reference, and ERP just cannot be carried out without proper BPR. What we assume is that the BPR must be the outgrowth of ERP implementation and, therefore, it should be carried out during implementation only. But the major element of BPR is the change in the mindset, which can be initiated before ERP adoption, may be during the preliminary analysis by way of user training. The best thing to do in these situations is to carry 'noiseless BRP' which triggers the implementation smoothly.

Tight integration between modules is the key to an efficient ERP package; therefore all of the core business modules are related. For instance, in eresource ERP, manufacturing operations are integrated with customer service, logistics and delivery. A new customer order automatically initiates an appropriate warehouse action and product shipments trigger billing processes. Sales, production and purchasing groups work seamlessly together to fulfill critical customer orders and adapt production levels to changes in market demand.

Organizations also must understand that development of ERP is not like other software development projects, which are normally carried out focusing on automation. We find such serious mistakes being committed by some big and small companies in India.Today, when quality ERP product like resource ERP is well within the reach of most of the companies, one should not opt for costly in-house development. This kind of in-house developed ERP is not at all an ERP system except the integration.

Organizations that are looking forward to business growth should remember that the decreasing costs of hardware, infrastructure technology and ERP application put a modern version of these business-management packages within reach of any company.

Operational efficiency with ERP and eBusiness

Best vehicle to share business information with partners

SOME of the organizations may be wondering (http://www.eresourceerp.com/Operational-efficiency-with-ERP-and-eBusiness.html) why a Web-based ERP application is needs to be implemented. The answer is simple. A well run Web-enabled ERP system will make the entire value chain very powerful. The companies that have successfully implemented ERP system will become the masters in helping other suppliers to integrate ERP and eBusiness to create a Web-based extended ERP environment.

Anyone will agree with the point that the traditional businesses spend a lot of time, effort for communicating business information and making and accepting payments. But eBusiness do the same thing over digital networks. Thus, the savings in terms of time, effort, error reduction, etc, are quite dramatic.

With making its operations eBusiness, the organizations can accept payments - credit card payments, digital cash, etc - over the Internet. The use of electronic media for information and transmission and financial transactions greatly reduce the time required for completing a transaction at the same time automating the business process involved.

Of late many of the organization consider Web-enabled ERP as their most important and strategic platform because it provides a solid foundation and information backbone for eBusiness. When a business application like an ERP system is enhanced with the eBusiness capability, i.e. making it a web-based ebusiness enabled ERP, they supercharge each other. eBusiness is the best vehicle to share business information with partners for creating major B2B synergies.

A fully integrated web-based ERP system like eresource ERP will capture and create accurate, consistent and timely relevant data, and assist in intelligent business decision-making. The impact of ERP/e-Business integration is substantial, ranging from reduced inventory and personnel level to improved order and cash management. It also results in improved customer responsiveness, reduced IT costs and the availability for value-added activities.

The successful organizations are continuously modifying their methods in serving their clients which also increases their profit margin. To achieve this positive result, organizations have to intelligently integrate the supply chain, so that information, material and money automatically flows up and down the supply chain at high-speeds without any glitches.

Organizations also need to woo the customers with personalized services. What every top people in the management side must realize that is in today's competitive world, there is no consistency in the loyalty of a customer. It is always changes. In this age of Internet and other fast phased communication era, information is freely available and it is highly possible for the customer to switch loyalty without any indication when there are better quality services available in the market. Therefore the organization should not waste time and must collect information about the customers and analyze it to find the customer preferences, purchase patterns and so on. To do this it must have a good customer relationship management system (CRM).

It is also to be remembered that just keeping customers happy and offering personalized service will not have any effect if the operating efficiency of the company is poor. In order to improve efficiency and to have better information integration, companies should have an effective Web-enabled ERP system in place. An efficient and well-implemented ERP system like eresource ERP can raise the productivity to unprecedented levels.

Measure the ERP to improve performance

ERP performance studies are undertaken by organizations to know the effectiveness or benefit of ERP. Evaluation is an important step that helps in analyzing the contribution of ERP to an organization. However, this process of assessment itself poses many problems.

Normally, organizations have tendency to perform this process in a professional manner so that it would yield results. They tend to lose focus as the whole process gets into action. It is geared with great enthusiasm but confusions develop and mar things.

The success of an ERP project cannot be judged on the basis of unscientific evidence. Measuring its effectiveness and the improvement it has provided establishes ROI, justifies costs and lays the foundation for a continuous improvement model. But the goal of measurement is not to measure; rather, it is to improve performance and processes are the point at which this can be best accomplished.

A recently survey shows the proposition that ERP systems support business process and the measureable success of these system is dependent on the continuous examination and improvement of those processes. Metrics are the evidence upon which success can best be judged.

For a metric to be of any use to an organization, it needs to measure one of three different aspects of a process: cycle time (the percent of acceptable products produced during one cycle). All three metrics types are required to provide balanced improvement to a process.

Many companies get everything done at the right time with regards to ERP right from software selection to customization to training and implementation. They take all measures to provide the necessary impetus and invest in huge volumes even if it is pinching monetarily.

They are more particular about the benefits and are hence unmindful of the costs and investments. What happens thereafter is something to be worried about and corrected. After going all the way and that too in the right manner, companies do not bother to review the working pattern of ERP. Unless they understand this it is not possible to achieve the benefit of ERP.

Affordable and easy-to-deploy

Need based ERP system within your budget
No need to overspend! Need-based ERP system is within your budget. ERP is capable of delivering specialized variants of their applications to service vertical markets such as government, healthcare and manufacturing segments. We have also moved into more specialized areas, such as supply chain management and demand forecasting or sales automation and marketing. eresource is offering customized solution to more than a dozen industrial segments.

Earlier organizations had to implement EP throughout their system irrespective of the fact whether they help in all the functions or in one particular function. This was proving to be a big hurdle to the firms. In addition, this remained as the main disadvantage or setback of ERP. Firms had to purchase all the applications even if it meant that most of them would be idle except for the core function.

eresource's Filtered ERP modules have overcome this menace. We offer need-based applications. Companies are given the liberty to implement modules pertaining to a particular function. This advantage has helped to increase the scope of ERP not only among large firms but also small and medium businesses all well.

It is a known fact that implementing ERP was very costly affair. The intrusion of Internet and Web-based ERP solutions like eresource system has helped SMEs to enter the market of prospective buyers.

Now that the spending on ERP gets reduced there are no hesitations to show the green signal for fear of heavy monetary outlay. It is encouraging to notice the improving trends in ERP implementations.

There was another reason why some companies discouraged ERP implementation. This is because it took such a long time to get an ERP system implemented and set the whole process into action. Since this resource was spent excessively there were chances for reduction in potential business and losing man-hours. eresource ERP system is less complex to install and requires less training. On-time implementation is one of the success factors of eresource ERP.

It could not only integrate different functions from different departments but also different function from different industries.

There was time when an ERP solution was an exclusive internal solution of an organization and many people in the organization were not aware of the existence of a technology under their nose or they have lacked the information about functioning.
