Understanding the Challenges in ERP Implementations

Industry experts estimate that more than 75% of ERP implementations fail to achieve the desired results. This is often due to projects exceeding budgets, expanding beyond their initial scope, or failing to deliver within the anticipated timeframe. Such failures are frequently linked to a traditional 'technology-first' approach that neglects the human element and its impact on business processes.

ERP implementations can cause significant disruptions to an organization's personnel and critical business processes, highlighting the necessity of a more balanced approach that considers both technology and the human aspect.
