my country's ERP success rate has been below 10%, and the general reflection of enterprises in recent years is not ideal. After the concept of ERP is known for the Chinese people, how to implement the company's goal in the academia and the business community, how to successfully implement ERP and other issues have launched a fierce discussion. Due to the impact of BPR thinking, it is the debate of first BPR or first ERP. In the debate, many companies have paid high tuition fees and have become mature. So why is the success rate of ERP is not high, why can't I reach the expected goal of the company? Is it an exemplary deficiencies in ERP? The proposal of these issues has also triggered a lot of discussions about ERP.
Is ERP outdated?
"Don't go to ERP is waiting." With the improvement of information technology and management ideas, companies have entered a collaborative business stage, and they have launched various information systems. Everyone has tied into the wave of informationization. However, the problems faced by most companies are often, and suppliers have implemented ERP, and competitors have implemented ERP, and even customers have implemented ERP. If companies do not work hard to improve their work efficiency, the reaction speed, do not pay attention to better cooperation with upstream companies, will be eliminated by the market, in such an intrinsic external pressure, walking on the information path . It is also because most companies in China have realized that the integrated system should be integrated to integrate multiple aspects (including people, process management, etc.), which is also because such an environment makes the company. I think of an informatization, I think of ERP.
"Shang Erp is equal to finding death." On the other hand, many companies in my country have implemented ERP, but due to lack of implementation of normative and effective evaluation systems, the assessment of ERP implementation has become a difficult thing, then it is only necessary whether ERP succeeds, can only rely on the information system to go online. Judging, as long as the system successfully runs, even if the report generated by the machine has a lot of access to the manual report. Such ERP is easy to become an IT black hole of the company. It has not been a desired return, but it has caused the dissatisfaction of employees and partners. The company has to make an additional investment, and finally being dragged by ERP, "Shang ERP is equal to finding death" said.
Simply analyze that we can understand that "Shang ERP is equal to finding" is the main reason is that many companies "for ERP", regard ERP as a propaganda means, as a task, for ERP providers and If you don't understand the manufacturer, even when you are unclear with your own situation, you will happily in the system, so it is difficult to avoid the blindness of ERP implementation. Now there are many discussions about ERP outdated, there are many new words such as ERPII, ERM, want to use these new concepts to replace ERP. Of course, these new concepts have their advanced nature, but do we have to understand whether ERP really comes to the end, does ERP really have a weak weakness? What is the reason for the failure of the ERP project?
We have seen that there are many companies that have successfully implemented ERP at home and abroad, and these companies have a quality leap through the successful implementation of ERP. For example, foreign general appliances, Bayer Group, domestic Lenovo, Haier Group, etc., their experience will help us better in the way of implementing ERP implementation. So how do you prevent blind ERP? What does the successful ERP need?
"IT plan" saving ERP
From successful enterprises that have implemented ERP, we can see that a successful ERP implementation requires the attention of the leadership, requiring a successful information system, which requires rich experience in experience, in fact, it is more needed. It is also a description of the description and blueprint of the corporate information framework, which can be seen from the definition that ERP is also in this framework. Through IT planning, enterprises form awareness of the entire information process, understand the status of ERP in the entire plan and the core competitive advantage of enterprises, and clarify where the enterprise has huge potential, through gradual implementation, to achieve the entire IT blueprint. This should also be an old saying: "Everything Think Think". A practical IT plan for enterprises will help enterprises information about risks, reduce costs, and reach a consensus. Among them, consensus is an important result of IT planning. Enterprises often encounter the situation of the management operations as the information department. Here is the story of "Manchu": At the ERP implementation phase of a company, the operation department has a dispute with the information department on ERP. The operation department wants to make the ERP system to complete all things to do. " Manchu ", but the information department wants to implement step-by-step, from the key point, first throw a" onion oil cake ". This is because the issues that have not reached a consensus are the lack of a good IT plan.
Through IT plan, you can help companies build a vision, help companies recognize informationization to enterprises, departments and even individuals from top to bottom; at the same time, it is necessary to realize that information is a long-term twiggy process, need Implementation of steps in steps. As long as people reach, other problems are relatively solved, just as a saying: "A good program is far less than a consensus program."
in conclusion
IT plans are not only in ERP construction, but also give good guidance in CRM, SCM, EIP, CPC. Blind information, even if there is a "one hand" strong support, there is a mature software system, there are extensive experience, and there is no good IT plan. It is also "blind man", I went to the cliff, I didn't know, I didn't know. It will still jump forward. Then, informationization will not only "go to ERP is looking for death", on CRM, SCM, EIP ... will also be dead.
