ERP Evaluation & Selection

What’s the ROI?  It’s a question every CIO must be prepared to answer.  And it’s why careful ERP evaluation and selection is absolutely essential – to ensure that you’re maximizing your ROI.  Only after a thorough evaluation and selection process should you feel confident that you’ve chosen an ERP solution that is functional over the long-term – agile enough to support organizational growth and evolving business strategies.

Looking for a way to best match your business needs with the right ERP solution?  MSS can help.  When we work with you on an ERP evaluation and selection process, we will:

• Help you manage vendor interactions, knowing which questions to ask, so that your selection process is not distorted with pressure sales tactics,
• Help you separate fact from fluff – we have hands-on experience with most ERP technologies, so we’ll be able to help you see beyond the marketing messages,
• Focus the evaluation process on your core business processes and information needs versus the laundry list of features and functions that many consultants use.

First, MSS will establish a framework of requirements, priorities and criteria for evaluation of the ERP solution.  Then, we’ll help you create a short list of potential ERP vendors; we’ll structure and conduct the product demonstrations, facilitate the decision process and assist with vendor negotiations.
