Wrong ERP Questions.

Very often I hear people ask the question on the strength and weakness of an ERP system. (a YES & NO Checkbox - and we are better!) This is the wrong or improper question in my opinion. One should not be looking for the strengths and weaknesses in the software. Instead, you should analyse how well the software fits your business needs.

Your company cannot exploit the software strengths if they are not in an area you need to use. As an example, there are strong project functionalities in Sage 300 but that probably will not help you if you are a company that manufactures & distributes tea or shampoo. 
A weakness in ERP might be its use of inventory attributes, which may not affect you, if you manufacture bicycle. So what value does such an exercise provide? Most probably none! 

There are few proven paths to finding a software fit. There is one "known" way to find software that fits your business and that is to have the sales team demonstrate your processes in their software. And, I would not suggest using all of your processes, just the most important of those.  So, how do you learn your important processes?

Ingredient for successful selection & implementation

* Top Management Commitment / Lower Management Co-operation.
* Involvement of the Account dept, Production dept and sales/distribution dept.
* Co-operation of every dept to product accurate and reliable Inventory data.
* Lean (Simplify) your current processes
* Don’t look for the perfect software.
* Select software that fits those most important parts of the business.
* Realistic goals of the Software.

Experience has shown that the successful organizations are those who have addressed a much wider range of issues other than just hardware and software. These organizations have defined at the outset how the system would be applied to gain maximum advantage.

They then systematically tackle all the technical and non-technical issues, involving people, organization, working practices, and physical layout, and establish an appropriate environment to support the system.

A successfully implementation invariably reflects the organization's ability to manage change and early recognition that it involve much more than installing computer systems and effective pre-planning.

SO DON'T GET CAUGHT WITH THE BIG BOYS GAME, (with - EXPENSIVE-REGRETS-PAINS) CHECK OUT WHAT THE ALTERNATIVE HAS TO OFFER.

INDUSTRY 4.0 - Reality and Hype.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. … Lao-Tzu

I talk to manufactures all the time and as I walk their factories I was hit with the reality that frankly in this region these plants have yet to fully adopt the automation technologies of Industry 3.0. Now they are hit with realization that the i4 revolution is upon us.

In this environment, executives at manufacturing companies need to separate hype from reality. They need a clear picture of the current risks and opportunities. And they need to understand what their peers and competitors are doing to drive value and capture competitive advantage.

At Careware, we want to help SMALL-MEDIUM MANUFACTURING organisations separate hype from reality. So, we sat down with you and talk about your concerns and needs. And very often we say go back to basic. Simplify your process and also strengthened your inventory accuracy. These are the FOUNDATION of your quest in it-lization.

Select an ERP that is i4 friendly and compatible, that is affordable and that is fuelled by the current technology of cloud, mobility and business intelligent analytics, etc. The ERP is essentially central to your entire business process from sales order to manufacturing order, your supply chain and customer service. It is the backbone of the network connecting your business WITHIN and WITHOUT.

It will connect to your production line via integration to your smart machines, robots, production cells, sensors and devices as products and as machines communicate with each other and exchange commands as products move from wip to finished goods along the production line. This is the end goal. The journey begins with the first step.
