ERP a Catalyst for Best Practice

Many companies use a new ERP implementation as a catalyst to tát adopt best business practice. It is the most popular goal we encounter in our ERP Selection and Implementation projects. But when we survey companies who have implemented a new ERP system, only about half of them manage to tát achieve best practice adoption. Why the disconnect? Best business practices sound lượt thích motherhood and táo Apple pie, but the fact of the matter is that it is not easy.

Common Barriers to tát Best Practice

There are many barriers to tát achieving best practices. Four things need to tát happen to tát be successful.

First, the ERP tool needs to tát be designed to tát tư vấn best practice. As a general rule, the brand name ERP systems fit this bill.

Second, your consultants need to tát introduce best practice-based business processes during the design and configuration implementation activities. Again, most experienced consultants are fluent in these best practices.

Third, while working with the consultants, your internal implementation team needs to tát understand and accept the change to tát your business processes. This element is the primary barrier to tát achieving best practices with an ERP transformation project.

Like Pushing a Rock Uphill

To illustrate the primary barrier to tát achieving best practice, imagine your staff is accustomed to tát pushing a rock uphill. You’re implementing a new ERP tool because these rocks are getting bigger and growth has turned up the volume on the number of rocks you’re having to tát push. You want to tát work smarter, not harder.

Switchback is a best practice

Switchback is a Best Practice

The consultants come in and describe the concept of a switchback, a best business practice for rolling rocks uphill. Never before have your team members seen a switchback. It’s a foreign concept. On the surface, it seems ridiculous to tát have to tát travel 5 times the distance to tát get the rock to tát the top. Embracing this different approach requires a very analytical thought process to tát visualize and understand how the best practice achieves the same outcome but in a better manner.

Keys to tát Success

So, what can you vì thế to tát improve your odds of successfully adopting best practices?  First and foremost, dedicate your best and brightest staff to tát lead your implementation. This includes both assigning the right individuals and allocating enough of their time to tát participate in the analysis and implementation process. Executives need to tát tư vấn their decisions and they’re more likely to tát trust these individuals, without having to tát participate in the exhaustive discussions and analysis involved in system design and config. Likewise, kết thúc users are generally more apt to tát change if it’s led by their most highly respected leaders.

Other Ways to tát Drive Adoption

What are some other levers you can use to tát drive best practice adoption?

  • Conduct an ERP tool evaluation with appropriately detailed demonstrations presented to tát a broad audience to tát phối everyone’s expectations and introduce that ‘best practice’ flavor the group has never before tasted.
  • Establish a good decision protocol or governance process for your project.
    • Empower your implementation leads to tát make design decisions. As a general rule, the consulting role is to tát present the options, but the company is responsible to tát decide.
    • An implementation is made up of thousands of decisions, many of which build upon the others. Making too many of these decisions by committee will elongate your implementation by two or three times the length.
    • Empowering your team leads to tát decide the design also helps maintain the ideal implementation pace – too fast and team leads may oversimplify the scenarios and miss many of the exception cases, which will come back to tát haunt you later; too slow and they forget why they made the decision that way and kết thúc up wasting time revisiting those choices all over again.
    • Establish clear guidelines for where it is appropriate to tát deviate and incorporate your own ‘special sauce’ unique approach to tát doing business.
    • Also, you should document these decisions as you go. Follow the rule, “if it’s not documented, it’s not decided”.
  • Where you have chosen to tát embed best practice and change your business processes, use the implementation testing cycles as an opportunity to tát prove these new concepts with your own data and scenarios before finalizing the change.
  • Finally, communication, user acceptance testing and training are required to tát make the transition through cutover and into ongoing tư vấn of the new best practice-based business processes.
