We have seen dozens of ERP implementations over the past few years and we
|
|
|
|
|
realize that successful implementation is a lot about intangibles and
|
|
|
|
|
attitude.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**ERPs are not required.**
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Like exercise.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Human body may seem like it does not require exercise today or even tomorrow,
|
|
|
|
|
but in the long run, if you wish to maintain your body and its health, you
|
|
|
|
|
should get on the treadmill.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the same way, ERPs improve the health of your organization over a long run
|
|
|
|
|
by keeping it fit and efficient. The more you delay putting things in order,
|
|
|
|
|
the more time you lose, and the closer you get to a major disaster.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
So when you start implementing an ERP, keep your sight on the long term
|
|
|
|
|
benefits. Like exercise, its painful in the short run, but will do wonders if
|
|
|
|
|
you stay on course.

## The Champion
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ERP means organization wide change and it does not happen without effort.
|
|
|
|
|
Every change requires a champion and it is the duty of the champion to
|
|
|
|
|
organize and energize the entire team towards implementation. The champion
|
|
|
|
|
needs to be resilient incase something goes wrong .
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In many organizations we have seen, the champion is most often the owner or a
|
|
|
|
|
senior manager. Occasionally, the champion is an outsider who is hired for a
|
|
|
|
|
particular purpose.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In either case, you must identify your champion first.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Most likely it's **you!**
