ERP Analysis & Improvement

An Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system is used to integrate all a business’s processes to help streamline and automate workflows to reduce human error and increase the efficiency of resources. ERP systems, are much more extensive than Material Resource Planning (MRP) systems. In addition to helping you manage manufacturing processes, they also help you manage full business processes.

An ERP can help you manage main cross-functional business processes, often maintained by software and technology. It keeps all your business’s data in one place and as such increases the quality of your data. This allows companies to automate back-office functions relating to human resources, supply chain management, customer relationship management, financial management technology resource planning, inventory management and other services. 

Our team committed professionals will analyze your current resource planning processes and, working with your organization, provide recommendations for areas of improvement or automation.

Proper modeling of business process in an ERP unlocks many potential improvements by providing access to the information needed to be optimized

Although ERP systems are expensive and can be a significant investment for your organization, they can unify your IT costs and improve efficiency. Instead of paying for several IT systems that would require dedicated resources, infrastructure and support teams, ERPs allow you to focus these costs into just one system. Using a single system also reduces training requirements as you only need to learn one system.

This is one of the biggest benefits of having an ERP system. As a result of having all major business processes managed and run through a single system, it allows data from every department to be easily accessible. This makes it easier for you and your leadership team to make well informed data-driven decisions to improve business functions. Also, it increases collaboration between different business functions and streamlines tasks.

Having an ERP system means that your business has a single source of truth for all of its major business processes. As a result, accurate reports can be generated that gives a holistic picture of how your business is performing. This allows you to make well-informed decisions.

ERP systems allow you to store client information in a centralized location. This allows your team to focus on what’s important, maintaining and building customer relationships instead of maintaining and managing spreadsheets.

As a business grows, one of its greatest challenges is managing increased system requirements. This can cause major roadblocks affecting your business’s quality and efficiency to deliver value to customers. ERP systems can be a great investment for the future of your organization as you plan to grow and develop as they are very scalable.
