How You Approach ERP

Don't gamble with ERP. You don't want to be lucky; you want to be smart. Smart means considering all the elements driving success, particularly the one responsible for flipping the switch: your users. Their performance is critical.

True story: researchers have discovered that the Titanic sank because the builders used cheap screws. We'll bet they took the performance of those screws for granted.

Are you sure you know how to mobilize your people to support ERP? Do you know what to consider? Where to start? Our seasoned change management pros can help you master the most complex change, before, during and after "go live." Now the odds are in your favor.

    HD Supply

    HD Supply was in the midst of incredible changes. Within the same year, this large wholesale distribution company acquired their major competitor, dissolved their relationship with their former parent company (Home Depot) and started deployment of SAP across their business. They turned to us to lead the SAP change. Our team identified impacts to the organization. Then we designed communication and executive sponsorship to mitigate those impacts and created business readiness teams. We also facilitated ongoing dialogue between the project team, the integrator and the business. Our team forged a partnership with human resources, IT and other departments – creating a stronger project, surfacing data governance issues and ensuring a series of successful deployments.

    NetApp

    NetApp is the pioneer when it comes to network storage and data management. But this high tech innovator needed to upgrade its own IT package so its 4,000-strong sales force would have the latest tools at their fingertips to beat the competition. Change is always hard – especially for ERP solutions in fast-paced environments. That’s why this NASDQ 100 company turned to us. Our work included mapping business processes, developing change leaders, fostering global sponsorship and creating culturally attuned communications – all to prepare those who fuel NetApp sales to transition successfully to their new tool.
