ERP stands for "Enterprise Resource Planning". The definition of enterprise resource planning is an integrated software solution used to manage a company's resources. ERP systems integrate all business management functions, including planning, project, inventory/materials management, engineering, order processing, manufacturing, purchasing, accounting and finance, human resources, payroll, and more.
The benefits derived from ERP can far outweigh the costs of the system, providing that the system is selected carefully and is appropriate for your company from a feature, cost, and technology standpoint. Some of the benefits realized are:
A single integrated system.
Streamlining processes and workflows.
Reduce redundant data entry and processes.
Establish uniform processes that are based on recognized best business practices.
Information sharing across departments.
Improved access to information.
Improved workflow and efficiency.
Improved customer satisfaction based on improved on-time delivery, increased quality, shortened delivery times.
Reduced inventory costs resulting from better planning, tracking and forecasting of requirements.
Turn collections faster based on better visibility into accounts and fewer billing and/or delivery errors.
Decrease in vendor pricing by taking better advantage of quotation comparison and tracking vendor performance.
Track actual costs of activities and perform activity based costing.
Provide a consolidated picture of sales, inventory and receivables.
An ERP system provides the solid operational backbone manufacturers and distributors need to improve the volume of production and fulfillment of orders while reducing costs. By optimizing your manufacturing and distribution operations with ERP, you'll also be able to focus on new business opportunities.
ERP is used across many industries and in organizations both big and small. However, these are the industries that benefit the most from an ERP system: manufacturing, distribution, construction, healthcare, hospitality, professional services, retail, and nonprofit.
Cost Benefit Analysis
The cost of ERP implementation versus the benefit derived post implementation is a critical factor for consideration. An ERP should help overcome the cost and continue to pay dividends for years to come.
Business Specific Requirements Implementation
Although the basic operation model is standard in every industry vertical, there are exceptions that make yours' unique. An ERP should account for and cater to each exception and meet the precise requirements of your business.
Unrealistic Implementation Expectations
ERP sales representatives often understate the level of resources required to close the deal. Therefore, many companies fail to budget adequate time, money, resources and external consulting support to make the project successful.
Modules Selection
An ERP consists of multiple modules. However, a business should limit the scope of the implementation to the module(s) needed to meet its operational goals. An attempt to overachieve can lead to failure.
Cost of Implementation
ERP implementation can be a long and expensive process. Businesses should identify the deliverables and relevant cost implications for development and deployment of various modules along with the timeline. Cost of ownership of the required hardware system is a onetime expense, however the cost of upgradation and maintenance should be carefully considered as well. Additionally, salaries of IT managers and trained operators will remain a recurring cost.
Employee Feedback on the ERP
Your employees will be the key stakeholders impacted by the ERP implementation. Consequently, employees from every department should preview the product to ensure their respective requirements and concerns are addressed.
Selection of the ERP Vendor
Technology and business process implementation are generally the pillars to short list ERP vendors. However, the credibility of the vendor and testimonials to back the service quality should not be discounted.

Long Term Planning
Although the primary criteria for ERP selection will be the current business requirements, future enhancements and requirements should also be considered and relevant provision should be maintained in the ERP.
