Why an independent ERP consultant makes a difference
An ERP investment shapes how a company works for years. As an independent ERP consultant and solution partner I earn nothing from licence sales, so my recommendations are driven only by your processes, budget and growth plans. That means a neutral comparison during selection and quality control on your behalf during implementation.
ERP selection
- A prioritised list of business processes and critical requirements
- Scenario-based demo scripts for shortlisted systems: a demo of your processes, not the vendor's
- Total cost of ownership comparison (licences, implementation, maintenance, internal effort)
- Reference calls and risk assessment
Process analysis through an ERP analyst's lens
I find bottlenecks in the current system with data rather than intuition: document cycle times, number of manual corrections, duplicate entries, stock and invoice discrepancies. As an ERP analyst I turn those findings into a prioritised improvement list with measurable targets.
Implementation and ERP project management
As an ERP manager and project lead I own scope, timeline and stakeholder management. Fit-gap analysis, data migration plan, test strategy, user training and cutover plan are clarified at the start. Change requests are logged and scope creep is caught early.
Security and risk analysis
Authorisation concepts, segregation of duties (SoD), interface security and backup/disaster-recovery plans are often neglected in ERP projects. I build them into the plan from day one and, for on-premise installations, assess infrastructure risk as well.
After go-live: continuous improvement
Go-live is a beginning, not the end. Intensive support in the first weeks, followed by regular process reviews and small improvements, lets the system grow with the company.
