Document Summary
Introduction: erp systems provide integrated business computing solution & improve company"s ability to compete in marketplace. Integration of data; replacement of old fragmented legacy systems; Cost advantages; quicker deployment of packaged systems: reasons for failure: Spend more money on erp than company can afford. Positive correlation between organisational fit & implementation success. Package code modification: erp implementation long & complex process. Implementation: design, stabilisation, continuous improvement, transformation, key decision whether to accept assumptions about business processes built into the system; decision affects amount of customisation. Success of erp implementation affected by it-based resources & how they are assembled, coordinated & deployed (tangible, intangible, Customisation in erp implementation: primary customisation goal is to achieve fit between erp system & process that system supports. How to change & customise software package: module selection. Company"s decision as to which modules to implement. Makes minimum alterations to system: table configuration.
