Optimizations
We firmly believe that your ERP environment should support your value-added business processes. If your ERP process is creating waste, burdening your people, or not meeting organizational KPIs, we can help analyze and implement improvements. Our optimization approach follows a process improvement methodology of Plan, Do, Check, Act (PDCA):
-
-
Plan - We emphasize the discovery process to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the physical process, ERP process, and overall goals. We perform a gap analysis that enables us to analyze potential solutions and, together with your resources, determine the best solution(s) to implement. We’ll present your leadership with a clear plan of action including timeline and budget.
-
Do - Improvements may be as simple as tweaking an existing configuration or retraining the organization. Other recommendations may include new application implementations, a reconfiguration, or a custom-developed tool.
-
Check - After the recommendations are implemented in an isolated manner, the process should be monitored to validate whether the solution(s) corrected the gaps identified during discovery.
-
Act - Improvements are finalized and rolled out.
-
