5 Key Best Practices from Successful ERP Implementations

Thursday, November 20th @ 12:00 pm MST

Sam and Natalie

Pull up a chair at the EAG dinner table for a Thanksgiving discussion you won’t want to miss! Every year, businesses around the world are plagued by difficult ERP implementations and learn hard ERP lessons they won’t soon forget. And, unfortunately, many of those obstacles could have been avoided. Those who successfully go live are often thankful for the guidance they received from an experienced ERP consultant who ensured the company applied best practices to their ERP implementation, so they didn’t have to repeat others’ mistakes. 

On this episode of The ERP Advisor, our very own Director, Ryan Baca, and Consulting Manager, Shelby Toney, will join Rebekah McCabe, EAG's Digital Marketing Manager, and a special surprise guest, to discuss how they have succeeded by applying implementation best practices over hundreds of ERP implementations and countless hours of advisory services. They will also give thanks for the things clients do to make their own projects go right, and breakdown why you will be grateful to have an independent ERP implementation consultant on your team.

We will cover:
•    Common roadblocks on the way to a successful ERP implementation.
•    Best practices for ensuring your ERP implementation is a success.
•    Steps businesses can take to avoid common reasons for ERP implementation failure.
•    How client-side implementation consultants deliver value during an ERP implementation.
