ERP Implementation

 Blueprint for successful ERP implementation

Implementing an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system can be a complex and challenging process, but it is essential for streamlining business operations, increasing efficiency, and improving productivity.

Best ERP in UAE, Horizon EBS has a time- tested solution and a fool – proof implementation methodology that we follow which has resulted in the high success rate of implementation.


 Here are the key steps that we follow to ensure a successful ERP implementation:


1. Define your objectives and goals: Identify the reasons why you need an ERP system and what you want to achieve from it. This will help organizations to set specific goals and expectations that you can work towards during the implementation process.


2. Assemble a cross-functional team: Establish a team that includes representatives from each department that will be affected by the ERP system. This will ensure that everyone's needs and concerns are addressed, and that the system is customized to meet the requirements of each department. This step can effectively reduce timeframe of implementation as the inputs from all departments are essential for successful completion of the ERP project.


3. Plan and prepare for implementation: Develop a detailed implementation plan that outlines the timeline, milestones, and tasks required to implement the ERP system. Make sure that everyone involved is aware of their roles and responsibilities, and that they have the necessary resources and training to complete their tasks.


4. Customize the system: Horizon EBS can work with the process owners to include necessary customization as the per the client’s business processes. This may involve configuring workflows, setting up security protocols, and integrating third-party applications.


5. Test the system: Conduct thorough testing to ensure that the system is functioning as intended and that all data is accurate. This will help identify any issues or bugs that need to be fixed before the system is rolled out.


6. Train your employees: Provide comprehensive training to your employees on how to use the new system effectively. This will help ensure a smooth transition and reduce the likelihood of user errors. The training methodology used by Horizon EBS is helping the individual end -users, despite of their differences in IT proficiency in becoming an expert ERP user.


7. Go live: Roll out the system gradually and monitor its performance closely to ensure that everything is working as intended. Make any necessary adjustments and continue to provide ongoing support to your employees. 

8. Continuous improvement: Set up a process for continuous improvement to address any issues that arise and to identify opportunities for optimization and enhancement.


By following these steps, you can ensure a successful ERP implementation that improves your business operations and drives growth. With 30 years of experience in ERP development, we offer you our best service throughout implementation and forever. With Horizon EBS, we ensure that your business will flourish in the days to come with properly streamlined business process.

How can a company realize a larger return on investment and business benefits from their investments in their ERP software? This is a topic that most companies enjoy discussing about. Here are three key points: 1. Understand and leverage the functionality you already have.  Many ERP vendors offer a wide array of core functionality, advanced modules, and third-party applications to address the needs of their customer base.
