Software Selection

As the ERP market has matured, differences in product functionality between packages has narrowed and there is a variety of information available about the major vendors. So why use a consulting firm to assist your evaluation? Whether you're just starting, or have already constructed a short list we can help:

  • Justify the business case and priority areas to support where your business wants to be in 5 years

  • Identify mid-market and vertical market vendors

  • Evaluate the vendor support and stability factors that set them apart from others with similar product functionality

  • Evaluate vendor third party relationships

  • Provide impartial technology and functionality evaluations

  • Set up demo parameters and help evaluate references

  • Assist in contract negotiations and support agreements

  • Develop project team and implementation strategies

While more than one package will probably work for you, our assistance in helping you choose the best fit can save you money both at the outset and on a total lifecycle basis through package/support negotiations, reducing the time to implement, eliminating unnecessary modifications and ensuring ongoing support. Our areas of expertise include ERP/supply chain, warehouse management systems, manufacturing execution systems, advanced planning and scheduling tools, forecasting, logistics and business intelligence.
