Historical system architectures

Historically, companies created islands of automation. A hodge-podge of various systems that operated or managed various divergent business processes. Sometimes these systems were integrated with each other and sometimes they werent. Sometimes they were loosely interfaced and sometimes they were more tightly interfaced.
Why implement an ERP System?
To support business goals Integrated, on-line, secure, self-service processes for business Eliminate costly mainframe/fragmented technologies Improved Integration of Systems and Processes Lower Costs Empower Employees Enable Partners, Customers and Suppliers
Different phases of ERP Implementation

Pre evaluation screening

Decision for perfect package Number of ERP vendors
Screening eliminates the packages that are not at
all suitable for the companys business processes.
Selection is done on best few package available.
Package Evaluation
Package is selected on the basis of different
parameter.
Test and certify the package and also check the
coordination with different department

Selected package will determine the success or
failure of the project.
Cont.
Package must be user friendly Regular up gradation should available.
Cost
Project planning
Designs the implementation process. Resources are identified.
Implementation team is selected and task
allocated.
Special arrangement for contegencies.
Gap analysis
Most crucial phase. Process through which company can create a
model of where they are standing now and where they want to go.
Model help the company to cover the functional
gap
Reengineering
Implementation is going to involve a significant
change in number of employees and their job responsibilities.

Process become more automated and efficient.
Team Training
Takes place along with the process of
implementation.
Company trains its employees to implement and later, run the system.
Employee become self sufficient to implement the
software after the vendors and consultant have left.
Testing
This phase is performed to find the weak link so
that it can be rectified before its implementation.
Going Live
The work is complete, data conversion is done,
databases are up and running, the configuration is complete & testing is done.
The system is officially proclaimed.
Once the system is live the old system is removed
End User Training
The employee who is going to use the system are
identified and trained.
Post Implementation
This is the maintenance phase. Employees who are trained enough to handle
problems those crops up time to time.

The post implementation will need a different set
of roles and skills than those with less integrated kind of systems.
Potential Benefits of ERP

Internal Benefits

of a single source of data
data definition
real-time system operating costs
Increased productivity

Foundation
Potential Benefits of ERP

External Benefits
Improved
customer service and order fulfillment
Improved
communication with suppliers and

competitive position sales and profits
customers
Enhanced Increased
Major Challenges to ERP Implementation

Flexibility of software system upgrades
Implementation Cost Availability of internal technical knowledge and
resources
Education and training Implementation strategy and execution
Resistance to change
New Developments In ERP

Availability of web-based and wireless ERP
systems
Adoption of easy-to-install ERP systems
Linkage to other software systems, e.g., supply
chain management system, e-commerce, customer relationship management system
Conclusion
ERP systems provide a mechanism for
implementing systems where a high degree of integration between applications is required The Business Case or Value Proposition for implementation must be outlined To successfully implement a proper mix of people, processes and technology should be maintained
An organization can get the maximum value of these
inputs if it successfully adopts and effectively uses the system.
