<strong>Characteristics</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>effective</strong> <strong>ERP</strong><br />
<strong>Implementation</strong><br />
Its a well known fact that some <strong>ERP</strong><br />
implementation methods are more <strong>effective</strong><br />
than others. Here are a few attributes for<br />
<strong>effective</strong> usage.<br />
>> Implement the <strong>ERP</strong> in its normal form<br />
Don’t try to customize your <strong>ERP</strong> system at the<br />
very beginning. Try to maintain the standard<br />
s<strong>of</strong>tware and organize your strategy likewise.<br />
>> Make improvements which will bring<br />
vast advantages quickly<br />
If you are sure that improvements in <strong>ERP</strong><br />
system will bring benefits quickly, then only go<br />
for for the customization. Otherwise, stay with<br />
the standard s<strong>of</strong>tware.<br />
>> Data Migration must be kept at minimum<br />
Keep in mind that migrating data is one <strong>of</strong> the<br />
most time-consuming task. Keep the data
migration at minimum, transfer the important<br />
data which is absolutely needed and transfer<br />
the remaining data later on.<br />
>> Assign a single person for an <strong>ERP</strong><br />
project<br />
As many <strong>of</strong> the employees working on the<br />
project will be giving their time for<br />
implementation as well as routine work, have<br />
only a single person who is fully committed to<br />
the project.<br />
>> Make use <strong>of</strong> super user to train the end<br />
user<br />
Instead <strong>of</strong> hiring people from outside to train<br />
the user, use your company people itself. It will<br />
not only save time <strong>of</strong> training, but also help<br />
saving the cost that would be spent on the<br />
outside trainer.<br />
>> Don’t over-exceed your budget limit<br />
Cost control is fundamental on an <strong>ERP</strong><br />
execution. Watch out for your financial plan<br />
and don't exceed the budget if you can’t spend<br />
on the implementation.<br />
>> <strong>ERP</strong> testing is a must
<strong>ERP</strong> testing essential part <strong>of</strong> implementation.<br />
Ensure your testing program is thoroughly<br />
considered and firmly scheduled. Using less<br />
time on planned testing basically moves the<br />
trial period into the go-live period.<br />
>> Schedule the Go-live date as per the<br />
project<br />
<strong>ERP</strong> implementation is a time consuming<br />
process. You must have a timetable and stick<br />
to it firmly, yet don't trade <strong>of</strong>f the task by trying<br />
to meet the external forced due dates.<br />
>> Communicate, Communicate and<br />
Communicate<br />
Ensure that everyone in the organization has<br />
every minute detail about the <strong>ERP</strong> system and<br />
its implementation. Every detailed information<br />
must flow from upwards as well as downwards.<br />
Keeping everybody tuned in is critical for<br />
building confidence and motivating them for<br />
betterment <strong>of</strong> the business.<br />
