Surtel offers a practical approach for driving and managing large-scale change in complex organizations for ‘speed to benefit’. We are experienced in assisting clients with ERP selection projects in order to improve overall ERP Software effectiveness, meet the needs of the business and keep pace with changing business requirements.
We have a high level of confidence that our selection process will identify critical business issues, promote issue resolution, and result in potential savings in the form of cost avoidance or revenue enhancement. We engage multiple senior consultants who work closely with the client team to conduct the software selection process activities.
Benefits of the ERP Selection Process include the following:
- The Formal approach promotes identification and resolution of critical business issues related to the current processes and systems
- Examination of current activities allows for the immediate resolution of issues related to undocumented practices and noncompliance
- Utilization of client personnel (executive, area managers and key users) promotes the transfer of knowledge
- Utilizes internal expertise
