How to avoid ERP Implementation Issues

Learn how to avoid common pitfalls 

Software implementations can be tricky. There are so many things that can go wrong, and it's often hard to know what to avoid.

In this edition of Coffee talk below, we will take a look at the scope of work for software implementation and discuss some of the issues you need to avoid. By understanding these issues ahead of time, you can minimize the chances of problems occurring during the implementation process.

Join Andy and Jamie as they take you through some of the highlights and offer up strategies to make sure you have a successful implementation. These strategies can be applied to most software implementations. Let us know if you have any follow up questions! ERP.Simplified@govirtualoffice.com  

What are some of the issues you need to avoid when looking at the scope of work for a software implementation?

Some of the issues you need to avoid when looking at the scope of work for a software implementation include:

• Not understanding what is included in the scope of work.
• Trying to do too much yourself.
  
  

• Define what you want to accomplish with the software implementation.
• Set realistic expectations for what the software can do.
• Don't try to do everything yourself, delegate tasks to others who are involved in the project.
• Have a clear plan and timeline for the implementation process.

What are some tips for a successful software implementation?

One of the most important things to do when setting expectations for a software implementation is to be realistic about what the software can and cannot do. There are often limitations with any given software, and it's important to understand these limitations before starting the project. Trying to accomplish too much with the software can often lead to frustration and disappointment.

There are a few key things you can do to help ensure a successful software implementation. These tips include:

• Defining what you want to accomplish with the software implementation.
• Set realistic expectations for what the software can do.

Software implementations can be complex and time-consuming. Projects often run into problems that can delay or even derail the entire process. To avoid these issues, it is important to understand the common pitfalls and how to avoid them.

What are some common mistakes businesses make when choosing software?

• Not Defining Their Software Needs: One of the most common mistakes businesses make when choosing software is not taking the time to define their specific needs. Without a clear understanding of what you need the software to do, it's impossible to find a solution that will meet your needs.
• Opting for off-the-shelf software and not having a partner help you implement it.
