How do we tell whether a consulting firm really knows our industry versus just knowing the product?
An ERP consulting firm should be able to demonstrate previous success in your industry. Here’s how you can determine if they have that previous success.
1. Ask for case studies in your industry
Generic ERP implementation case studies are great, but you should push the IT consultancy to provide case studies for projects in your sector. Ask questions about specific problems that are common in your industry and see how they respond.
2. Evaluate the consulting team’s background
Try to determine if the consulting team has prior experience working within your industry, not just in IT in a generic sense. Industry-specific certifications and credentials are especially powerful in validating the team’s expertise.
3. Ask questions that uncover their knowledge of industry processes
Bring up industry-specific workflows (like manufacturing BOMs or HIPAA compliance in healthcare) and ask how they handle these things. How do they answer? If they only talk about platform features, not business processes, they probably know more about the platform than they do about your industry.
4. Ask for references
Tell the consultancy you’d like to talk directly with a few of their clients in your industry. Ask those clients how well the consultancy understood their operational pain points—not just their ERP configuration options.
How do we know if we need a new ERP vs. optimizing what we have?
There are several factors to evaluate as you decide whether to replace or optimize. Use this table to compare factors that indicate one scenario or the other.
Criteria
Signs You Need a New ERP
Signs Optimization May Work
System Performance & Stability
Frequent downtime, slow performance, cannot scale with growth.
Issues are due to configuration, data cleanup, hardware, or cloud resource allocation—not core architecture.
Functional Fit
Lacks critical features for compliance, analytics, or automation.
Missing functionality can be added via modules or customizations.
Integration & Data Flow
Cannot integrate with modern tools or requires costly workarounds.
Integration gaps can be solved with APIs or middleware.
Upgrade Path & Vendor Support
Vendor has sunsetted your version or no longer maintains a roadmap for updates.
Vendor provides updates, and you haven’t fully leveraged existing features.
Total Cost of Ownership
Maintenance costs and inefficiencies outweigh new implementation costs.
Enhancements and training are cheaper than full replacement.
Business Strategy Alignment
Growth strategy requires capabilities your current ERP cannot deliver.
Current ERP can support goals with targeted improvements.
What business outcomes should we expect in 12-24 months from an ERP implementation?
Some benefits of an ERP implementation appear quickly, while others take time to emerge. The overall success of an ERP implementation is best judged over a longer period of time, typically 12-24 months. Here are the business outcomes that our clients typically see in this timeframe.
1. Increased operational efficiency
A new ERP, properly configured to your requirements, should offer streamlined processes. This means reduced manual work and the reduction or elimination of redundant tasks through automation. You should also see shorter lead times for procurement, production, and fulfillment.
2. Improved data accuracy
With a properly implemented ERP, you should gain one source of truth for business data. No more comparing exports from different systems and trying to rectify the discrepancies. All systems integrated to your ERP should agree with the data found in your ERP.
3. Positive financial impact
By eliminating waste and streamlining your processes, a new ERP should deliver cost savings across the entire organization. Process automation and reduced IT overhead are significant factors here. You should also get better cashflow management with real-time visibility into receivables, payables, and inventory. Lastly, your finance team should have the accurate data they need to forecast your future financial state and plan your budget accordingly.
4. Improved scalability and flexibility
A new ERP system can lay the foundation for future growth plans—especially if those plans were baked into the implementation. With a powerful, flexible ERP in place, your organization is prepared to enter new markets, acquire new companies, and expand to new locations.
5. Improved experiences for customers and employees
With a new ERP, your customers enjoy faster responses, service, and order processing. With the right customer-facing integrations, you can also give your customers easier access to their account data. Employees enjoy simplified workflows, reduced manual work, and improved collaboration with their colleagues.
