Why is implementation support and education important?

95% of failed ERP projects have one thing in common.

Companies whose ERP projects failed dedicated less than 10% of their total budget to ERP education.

On average, the first year cost of a new ERP system for a mid-sized organization is $141,000, including implementation costs of $75,000.

The true cost of your ERP doesn’t end here though. Lack of proper planning also routinely leads to ERP implementations overrunning their budget by 27% on average, increasing the final ‘real world’ cost to $178,182.

Unsurprisingly some organizations choose to cut costs when their budget starts to creep, often opting to cut training and education costs to save money. However, research has found that project leaders and employees who receive ERP training are more likely to use the system effectively leading to better project outcomes.

The value of ERP preparation, training, and education cannot be underestimated or underinvested in for a successful project outcome.

ERP implementation planning is critical to project success

As the old saying goes: if you fail to plan, then you plan to fail.

Planning an ERP implementation can be a lonely task, especially if your organization is unwilling or unable to justify the considerable expense of hiring an external consultancy to implement and train your team.

Who you will learn with

The ERP Implementation Masterclass brings the expertise of a renowned ERP consultant into your organization at a fraction of the cost of hiring a consultant directly.
