Folk wisdom Warning "If we take a closer look at what separates organizations that have successfully implemented SAP and organizations that have not implemented SAP successfully, we can see that the latter, by the purpose of implementation, mistakenly meant installing software." Even if simple implementation is supported by some changes in management activities, this is still not enough to make SAP implementation successful. Organizations that benefit from the implementation of SAP benefit precisely because they see the project as a fundamental entrepreneurial initiative that will transform the entire enterprise. Of course, installing the software is part of this process, but only a small part. In other words, successful organizations understand that organizational rather than technical issues are at the heart of the problem. " (Luke Galoppen, The Vicissitudes of the Method The goal of most projects known to me “from within” was software implementation, not ERP system implementation. This approach was facilitated by a tacit agreement between the customer and the consulting company - the implementer. Both sides ignored the axiom: in order to obtain business benefits from the implementation of an ERP system, it is necessary to implement progressive management methodologies incorporated into the system. Top management is interested in maintaining the status quo of a functional approach to management, and consultants follow the path of least resistance. Proofs of such an approach to the implementation of an ERP system are: • the HR manager is not included in the project team; • the scope of work does not include measures to change the organization, including changing the motivation system. Incident of Company X My experience says that most of the company's employees did not understand the purpose of implementing the system, while managers of the enterprise and consulting firms issue press releases about the successful implementation. One of the directors of a large company told me recently: “We have implemented the ERP system very successfully: on time and on budget. But I don’t understand what has changed in our business, although we have spent several million dollars on implementation ”. ← Back All vacancies Vacancies 20 september 2017 6917 Questionmark architect / consultant / Moscow / September 2017 - November 2017 September 19, 2017 6918 TM consultant / Moscow / September 2017 - July 2018 ← previous following → Publications 09/25/2014 09:29 Alexander Dublin Rake thirteenth: work "in" vs work "on" 02/28/2013 10:12 Yuri Nechitaylov Is Gamification the Right Approach to Corporate Learning? 28.01.2013 21:31 Yuri Nechitaylov Ten main points of the forecast for the development of the global ERP solutions industry for 2013 12.12.2012 18:08 Yuri Nechitaylov Four Tips for Negotiating Contract with ERP Vendors Office address in Moscow 127473, Russia, Moscow, Krasnoproletarskaya st., 16/1, entrance No. 3, floor 4 Tel./fax: +7 (495) 646-80-29 Office address in St. Petersburg 196601, Russia, St. Petersburg, Pushkin, Oranzhereinaya st., 48 Tel .: +7 (812) 383-13-84, +7 (812) 383-13-85 About the company | News | Contacts Development and support of the OpenStart website © ExRP Ltd. 2003 - 2017
