Five Mistakes Every Executive Should Avoid When Evaluating a New ERP System

The ERP Advisor

There are a number of pitfalls to avoid when beginning a software evaluation and the mistakes begin well before you speak with any software vendor. If you have sat through at least one or two ERP product demonstrations, you know there is a lot to take into account before you could possibly narrow it down to the right choice. The license purchase and implementation cost for new ERP software can easily reach the $500,000 mark and beyond. As an executive, it is critical to make the correct decision. Executives who steer a failed ERP selection and implementation can become public enemy #1 to their colleagues and employees and can even lose their jobs.
At ERP Advisors Group, we’ve helped dozens of fast-growing companies navigate the murky waters of selecting a new ERP solution. In this episode, we’ll educate you on avoiding these mistakes and what is essential to putting you on the right path to a successful software selection – on time and on budget.
