The business environment is dramatically changing. Companies face the challenge of increasing competition, expanding markets, and rising customer expectations. This increases the pressure on companies to lower costs in the entire supply chain, shorten throughput times, drastically reduce inventories, expand product choice, provide more reliable delivery dates and better customer service, improve quality, and efficiently coordinate global demand, supply, and production.
Companies must upgrade their capability to generate and communicate timely and accurate information. To accomplish these objectives, companies are increasingly turning to enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems. ERP provides a unified enterprise view of the business that encompasses all functions and departments and an enterprise database where all business transactions are entered, recorded, processed, monitored, and reported.
Come along to hear Mario Panetta of Augmentum360, a Business Improvement Consultancy. He has managed many ERP change projects in a range of industries and sectors since the 1980s, helping clients with the full range of support from package selection to post go-live intensive-care.
Over the past 30+ years, he has developed an approach focussing on benefits realisation with realistic time and budget expectations. In today’s world of affordable cloud based software-as-a-service solutions, full-blown ERP is now an option for many SMEs.
Whether you’re thinking about ERP, or are already down the road and experiencing difficulties or even if you hadn’t considered it before then hearing Mario’s experiences will help you.
