ERP Implementation Life-Cycle
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) is made to automate any task. With ERP, it is easy
to manage every department under one single database. This consumes not much time
and is easy and fast way to do work with. Developed in 1990s, Enterprise Resource
Planning is foundation system for domestic and global operations, supporting most or
all functional areas in their daily operations. Is one of the more common categories of
business software, especially with large-scale businesses.
It is business strategy and set of industry-domain-specific applications that build
customer and shareholder communities value network system by enabling and
optimizing enterprise and inter-enterprise collaborative operational and financial
processes. ERP at its core is an effective way of centralizing information and workflow
processes through data management. Because ERP keeps all of your workflow data in
one place.
Example :
Any enterprise’s planning, manufacturing, sales and marketing efforts are put under one
management system and then it combines to one single database system.
Different phases of ERP Implementation :
1. Pre-evaluation screening :
This phase starts when company decides to go for ERP system. For this, search
for package starts. It is time-consuming process because every package has to
analyze first before reaching to any decision. As all packages are not same and
each has its own strengths and weakness. This process should eliminate those
packages that are not suitable for company’s business processes.
, 2. Package Evaluation :
It is the most important phase in implementation. This phase depends on
success and failure of entire project with package selection. Most important
factor while selecting any package is that not every package can be totally
perfect for project but at-least it should be good fit for project.
3. Project Planning Phase :
This phase plans and designs implementation process.
4. Gap Analysis :
It is the most crucial phase in this implementation. Here, gaps are analyzed
between company’s practices and that practices which are supported by ERP
package. It has been estimated that even best ERP package only meets 80-
85% of company’s functional requirements.
5. Re-engineering :
It is the fundamental rethinking and radical redesign of business processes to
achieve improvements.
6. Customization :
It is the main functional area of ERP Implementation. Arrived solution must
match with overall goals of company. Prototype should allow for thorough
testing and attempts to solve logistical problem.
7. Implementation Team Training :
Now after above processes, implementation team knows how to implement
system. This is phase where company trains its employees to implement and
later run system.
8. Testing :
This is the phase where team break system. Sometimes, system overloads or
multiple users trying to login at same time etc. Test cases are designed
specifically to find weak links in system. Different types of testing are: Unit
testing, integration testing, acceptance testing, security testing, performance
and stress testing.
9. Going Live :
Once technical and functional side is properly working and testing is done.
There comes next phase i.e, “Going Live”. Once system is ‘live’, old system is
removed & new system is used for doing business.
10. End-User Training :
This is the phase where user of system is given training on how to use system.
Employees and their skills are identified and training is given to them in groups
based on their current skills. Every employee is provided with training of job
which he is going to perform.
11. Post-Implementation :
It is the most important and critical factor. Post Implementation is based on
two words- Operation and Maintenance of system. Duration of this phase
depends on training efficiency. Necessary enhancements & upgrades are made
in this phase.
