Why ERP selection often goes wrong
Selection is not a spreadsheet competition; it's a structured decision journey. Without the right approach, many ERP selections lead to re-selection or costly modifications.
How we approach ERP selection
We use a proven selection methodology that translates business requirements into concrete package and partner choices. Our independent position ensures objective comparison.

What does this deliver concretely?
From our practice
A practical example
A technical components wholesaler had drawn up their own shortlist of two ERP packages. After our independent selection process, neither turned out to be the best fit. The package ultimately chosen was not even on their radar, but perfectly matched their logistics processes.
In our experience...
In our experience, companies choose too quickly based on brand recognition or a friend's recommendation. A structured selection process not only saves money, it prevents having to start over three years later.
ERP selection is the process by which an organization systematically chooses the ERP package and implementation partner that best fit its processes and growth strategy. This is crucial because a wrong choice leads to years of vendor lock-in and high failure costs.
An independent ERP selection process compares packages based on objective criteria rather than vendor interests. This results in a choice that fits the organization, not the advisor's sales interest.
Frequently asked questions about ERP selection
A structured selection starts with business requirements instead of functionality lists. We model critical processes, have vendors demonstrate on your practice, and document fit-gaps explicitly. This prevents blind spots that later lead to costly modifications or re-selection. Our approach significantly reduces implementation risks.
Traditional RFPs focus on functionality lists and price comparison. We start with business requirements, model processes, and work with demonstration scripts that force vendors to show their fit to your practice. We also assess the implementation partner on governance, team composition, and methodology. The result is a well-founded choice of both package and partner.
ERP Company is completely independent from vendors and receives no commissions or incentives. We have no preferred packages or reseller ties. Our comparison is purely based on fit with your requirements, TCO calculation, and implementation approach. This ensures objective advice without commercial ulterior motives.
Partner selection goes beyond the ERP package itself. We assess implementation partners on governance model, team composition, methodology, quality assurance, and references. A good package with the wrong partner leads to project failure. Our partner selection ensures predictable collaboration and successful implementation.
A complete ERP selection takes 8-16 weeks, depending on complexity. Deliverables include: requirements analysis, process models, demo scripts, fit-gap matrix, TCO comparison, partner assessment, and implementation roadmap. Everything is presented in a well-founded business case for management decision-making.
