Top 10 Reasons for ERP Project FailureJohn Paulson
The document outlines common reasons why ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) projects fail. The top reasons for overall project failure are incomplete requirements, lack of user involvement, and lack of resources. For projects going over budget or late, the leading causes are lack of user input, incomplete requirements, and changing requirements. The document was produced by Columbia Technical Consulting, who provides ERP project management services and training.
This document provides an overview of enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, including their history and evolution. ERP systems integrate internal and external management of information across an entire organization, including functions like finance, manufacturing, sales, and customer relationship management. The document discusses leading ERP providers like SAP, Oracle, and Infor. It also examines factors that can cause ERP implementations to fail, such as employee resistance, lack of management commitment, unrealistic expectations, and extensive customization. The document analyzes FoxMeyer's failed ERP implementation in the 1990s as a case study, highlighting risks like unrealistic scope, poor execution, and a challenging environment. Lessons are provided around planning, implementation, testing, and change management
Post ERP-Implementation-Vendors, Consultants and EmployeesYashsavi Amit
An ERP implementation requires significant investment and expertise. Companies should not attempt an in-house implementation due to the risks of failure and high costs. Instead, they should work with expert ERP vendors and consultants who have extensive experience developing, customizing, and implementing ERP packages. Vendors provide the software and initial training, while consultants manage the entire project, address customization needs, train employees, and ensure a successful outcome. Employees may resist an ERP transition due to fears about changes to their jobs, but their concerns can be addressed through training, education, and pilot projects. Negotiating a long-term license deal with an ERP vendor can help reduce total costs of ownership over time.
This document provides an introduction to Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems. It outlines learning outcomes for the course, ground rules, contact information, assessment criteria, and an assignment. It then discusses what ERP is, the business processes it supports, typical modules, advantages and disadvantages, implementation issues, evolution of ERP, the ERP market and vendors. In particular, it describes ERP as an integrated suite of applications that supports business operations across an enterprise through a single database. It aims to integrate and standardize business processes and data.
The document describes Jewel ERP, an ERP software solution tailored for jewelry businesses. It discusses how Jewel ERP can help jewelry companies manage key business areas like inventory, costing, pricing, sales and accounting.

Testimonials are provided that emphasize how Jewel ERP has increased control, margins and flexibility for growing jewelry businesses. In conclusion, Communication Crafts is introduced as the provider of Jewel ERP and related services for over 15 years.
This document discusses key decisions in ERP system implementation including outsourcing ERP functions to application service providers, customizing systems, choosing a big bang or phased implementation approach, and selecting between a single or multiple software packages. It also covers the ERP implementation lifecycle and potential problems companies may face during project and post-go-live phases.
HP announced a 5% revenue decline in its Enterprise Servers and Storage segment due to issues migrating a North American division to a centralized ERP system. The ERP implementation at HP failed due to poor planning, improper testing, data integration issues, demand forecasting problems, and a lack of contingency planning. As a result, HP lost $400 million in revenue and $160 million spent on the failed implementation. The failure negatively impacted employees, customers, HP's reputation, and market share against competitors like IBM and Dell.

FoxMeyer's ERP project was a disaster due to overly aggressive timelines and a failure to properly manage risks. They implemented two new systems simultaneously and did not adequately prepare users or improve business processes. While vendors shared some blame, FoxMeyer's unrealistic expectations and misjudgments in scaling up for a new client without the necessary systems in place ultimately led to the project's downfall. Proper change management, realistic schedules, and attention to business process reengineering could have mitigated risks and improved the project's chances of success.
Open ERP is an open source ERP software that integrates business processes across accounting, finance, sales, purchasing and more than 350 other modules. It automates tasks and administrative work by eliminating double data entry and allowing users to access all business functions from a single system. As open source software, Open ERP can be downloaded online, has no licensing fees, and offers flexible implementation by starting with individual modules as needed.
The document discusses key success factors for ERP implementation projects. It covers 5 factors: top management commitment, clear goal setting and budget planning, a good project team from both the client and vendor sides, effective change management, and business process re-engineering. For each factor, it provides details on what they entail and why they are important for a successful ERP rollout. It emphasizes the importance of support from top leadership, establishing clear objectives and budget, assembling a qualified project team, managing organizational change, and aligning business processes with the new ERP system.

Hershey Foods Corporation implemented the final phase of its enterprise-wide information system in 1999 which caused problems with customer service, warehousing, and order fulfillment. These issues were exacerbated by recent growth and shipping capacity constraints, resulting in sales and earnings falling short of expectations for the year. The rushed implementation of the system and failure to properly test it led to disruptions during Hershey's busy season.
My students' presentation of a 2003 paper "Enterprise resource planning: Implementation procedures and critical success factors" by Elisabeth J. Umble, Ronald R. Haft, and M. Michael Umble.
The document discusses various transition strategies for implementing an ERP system. It describes the big bang, phased, parallel, processed, and hybrid strategies. The big bang strategy implements all modules at once on a go-live date, while the phased strategy implements modules one at a time. The parallel strategy runs the legacy and new systems simultaneously for some time. The processed strategy uses a mini big bang approach for different product lines. Finally, the hybrid strategy combines elements of the other strategies to suit a company's specific needs. Careful planning is important to achieve success with any transition strategy.
The document discusses enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems and SAP, a popular ERP software. It notes that companies often have many disconnected software systems for different departments that make sharing information difficult. An ERP system integrates these systems to provide a single source of information. SAP is highlighted as the most widely used global ERP due to its comprehensive functionality, scalability, and proven track record of successful implementations. However, the document cautions that SAP projects can fail due to issues like improper implementation strategy, change management problems, or inadequate resources and expertise.
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) is a method for effectively planning all the resources in an organization. ERP software is designed to model and automate many basic business processes from finance to the shop floor with the goal of integrating information and eliminating complexity. ERP systems are mirror images of an organization's business processes. Some key reasons for the growth of ERP include improved business performance, supporting business growth requirements, providing flexible and integrated real-time decision support, and eliminating limitations in legacy systems.
An ERP is a business management software that integrates and manages the core business processes of an organization. In order for its successful implementation by any organization,some very basic key measures need to be taken care of. Apart from providing general information about ERP software, this PPT focuses on those main measures that result in its implementation’s success.
Arthur Andersen Consulting (AAC) was hired to implement an ERP system from SAP to replace FoxMeyer's aging systems and help it compete. However, FoxMeyer failed to adequately plan and test the new system. It did not reengineer business processes or involve end users. The overambitious project scope and lack of control led to system failures that bankrupted FoxMeyer. FoxMeyer also relied too heavily on consultants with little knowledge transfer, threatening employees. This case demonstrates the importance of thorough ERP planning, testing, change management and post-implementation support to avoid failure.
ERP implementation Failure at Hershey Food CorperationOlivier Tisun
Hershey Foods implemented an ERP system in 1999 that led to major problems. The key issues were:
1) Modules were simultaneously implemented instead of sequentially, leading to integration problems.
2) Training and testing were inadequate.
3) Peak season was chosen for the implementation.
4) Top management lacked IT expertise and did not properly oversee the project.
5) Problems were exacerbated by the looming Y2K issue and demand from retailers.
The failed implementation resulted in delivery delays, lost revenue, and excess inventory. Hershey later took steps to stabilize the systems and implement improvements.
ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) software integrates various business functions and processes into a single system with a shared database. For ERP to be successful, it must provide client satisfaction through an overall solution fit, adequate training, and resolution of emergent issues. It should also provide return on investment through improved workflows, efficiency, and reduced costs. ERP fails when there is poor analysis, improperly configured software, insufficient training, lack of industry knowledge, or when projects bite off more than they can chew through large teams or inaccurate data. Key elements of success include proper analysis of business needs, benchmarking processes, documenting issues and designed solutions, and having a strong project team.

Hershey, a leading chocolate manufacturer, needed to replace its legacy systems to address Y2K issues and enable more efficient operations. It implemented SAP, Siebel, and Manugistics software in a big bang approach over 30 months. However, the system went live during their busiest season, and they were unable to fulfill Halloween orders, which significantly hurt sales and profits. Key lessons learned were that enterprise software requires business process change, adequate testing is needed, and careful timing of go-live is important. After upgrades and improvements, Hershey now has near 99.96% inventory accuracy and can fulfill orders within 24-48 hours.
case study on ERP success(cadbury) and failure(hershey's)Chitrangada Roy
Cadbury implemented SAP ERP successfully, reducing costs through integrated systems. However, initial rollout caused excess inventory as production was not properly coordinated. Hershey rushed its ERP implementation in 2.5 years instead of 4, sacrificing testing. This caused order fulfillment issues, lost sales of $150M, and a 25% inventory increase, showing risks of compressed schedules. Both show ERP can integrate operations but must be carefully planned to avoid disruptions.
Total Cost of Ownership, User Acceptance and *Perceived Success of ERP Softwaremfryling
The document discusses a system dynamics model for predicting the total cost of ownership (TCO) of enterprise resource planning (ERP) software over the long term. It presents research on the dynamic relationships involved in maintaining ERP systems and how implementation decisions impact TCO, user acceptance, and perceived success. The model was developed based on a case study of an ERP implementation at a university and incorporates feedback from literature and interviews. The model can be used to analyze policies and scenarios related to customization versus business process reengineering and their effects on long-term costs and user perceptions.

To ERP or not to ERP
In the mid-market―simplifying an important decision
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) is a business management system that organizations use to track operations and make better decisions. It enables visibility, standardization, efficiency, and collaboration. Still, ERP has a reputation as a mature business application that may only be useful for organizations of a certain size. This is untrue. While ERP can be a substantial undertaking, the benefits to growing businesses should make its implementation a no-brainer. The question for mid-market
organizations should be, “What can ERP do for me?”

ERP stands for Enterprise Resource Planning. It refers to a type of software that organizations use to manage and integrate various aspects of their business processes. ERP systems are designed to streamline and automate workflows, facilitate data flow between different departments, and provide real-time information across the organization.
Key features of ERP systems include:
Integrated System: ERP integrates different business processes and functions, such as finance, human resources, manufacturing, supply chain, customer relationship management (CRM), and more into a single unified system.
Centralized Database: ERP systems use a centralized database to store and manage data from various departments. This allows for consistent and accurate information across the organization.
Automated Processes: ERP software automates routine tasks and business processes, reducing the need for manual data entry and improving efficiency.
Real-time Reporting and Analytics: ERP systems provide real-time insights and reporting capabilities, allowing organizations to make informed decisions based on up-to-date information.
Improved Communication: With data shared across departments in real-time, communication and collaboration between different teams become more effective.
Compliance and Security: ERP systems often include features to ensure compliance with regulations and industry standards. They also typically have security measures to protect sensitive business data.
Scalability: ERP systems are designed to grow with the organization. They can scale to accommodate increased data, users, and business complexity.
Implementing an ERP system can lead to various benefits such as increased operational efficiency, better decision-making, improved customer service, and enhanced competitiveness. However, ERP implementations can be complex and require careful planning and execution to be successful.
