The ERP challenge
There is an ever-increasing number of new ERP systems all promising broad functionality to address the needs of the modern business. However, research continues to show that most businesses do not achieve the expected benefit from their investments in ERP and other IT systems. This can make selecting and implementing a new ERP system a daunting prospect.
As a result of this, and perhaps their own bad experiences, many businesses decide to “make do” with ageing legacy ERP systems, despite their shortcomings, rather than risk the cost, disruption and pain involved in selecting and implementing a new ERP system.
