Five Tips to Address the Challenges of a Successful ERP Implementation
Two months in and I’m convinced this is going to be a great year, as the economy is steadily bouncing back. With this promising news, VAI is already starting to see more enterprises regaining confidence in making more significant technology investments. However, even with the encouraging financial outlook, enterprises need to more selective than ever, especially when it comes to investing in ERP software solutions.
While there are a number of ERP solutions on the market, they aren’t all going to be the right fit for your organization. Despite what some might think, ERP is not a “one-size-fits-all” kind of deal. Above all else, the right solution needs to be able to support an organization’s specific business needs, help improve efficiency and effectiveness, and provide the most significant ROI possible. In addition, with the onslaught of Web 2.0 and mobile technologies, the right solution needs to be able to provide “anytime, anywhere” computing that’s so critical in today’s fast-paced, round-the-clock working environment.
The entire ERP implementation process can be a daunting task – but it doesn’t have to be. The most critical first step is finding the right vendor. Once you have your ERP implementation partner selected, the rest should be fairly easy to handle.
To help those faced with this challenge, I have compiled a few implementation tips from VAI’s sales and services teams, sharing their own experiences about what enterprises should know before taking the plunge.
Pick the ERP vendor, then the software. A successful implementation is only as good as the team put behind it. Find out what kind of support will be available to you. Spend time researching the ERP vendor, its track record and the experience of your potential implementation team. A good implementation team will make the major difference in the degree of success of your implementation. A good vendor can potentially become your long-term partner, actively engaged in the success and growth of your organization, present and future.
Personalize – but not too much. Every company has its own unique business requirements and a vendor and its software should to be able to support those needs. While some companies want customer-written software, others prefer software with no modifications. Both can cost you money. Finding a solution that’s a 90- to 95-percent fit with the rest being personalized is ideal.
Make the implementation someone’s job. Select a project manager who can dedicate his/her time to see the entire implementation process through to the end. Bringing in temporary help is a great way to lessen the workload on the project manager. Don’t expect him/her to work on the implementation during down or spare time – there isn’t any.
Success starts at the top. The most successful implementations are championed by the president or CEO. It can’t be a task assigned to the IT department. ERP touches every aspect of an organization and every employee needs to know its success is crucial to the future of the company. This message has to come from the top.
Never stop implementing. Many companies address their major pain points in the first few months and then stop. This approach never taps the full power of the efficiencies and cost savings that a strong ERP package can deliver. Make a plan to have the trainers and implementers come in at least every year to review where you are and where you could be. Not only do you get more from your investment, but it will probably be a much longer time before you feel the need to start the ERP replacement search again.
Following these five recommendations can help you ease into your ERP implementation plan with confidence. We also suggest that you take a good look at all of the current processes across your organization and determine which ones need to be fully automated. You may discover that other parts of your business should be integrated within the scope of your original ERP implementation. As business conditions shift and continue to improve, you could find that your organization’s appetite for ERP is greater than you may have originally anticipated.

Continuous hiring and company-wide expansion marked the theme of the first half of 2011, with steady financial gains and industry accolades paving the way for an overall strong, client-centric year.
IQMS made a concentrated effort to strengthen its European presence in the first half of 2011, expanding its global staff significantly to more effectively serve its European clients’ sales, implementation and support needs. At the corporate headquarters, IQMS has experienced a 34 percent growth in total employees in nearly all departments, including a new business development sales force, resulting in corporate fiscal gains of more than 20 percent across multiple departments year-to-date over last year.
The first half of 2011 has also seen a number of awards conferred upon IQMS and its’ customers. Custom manufacturer, Plastikos, Inc., was awarded Plastics News magazine’s Processor of the Year award and Steinwall Scientific, Inc. and About Medical Inc. were recognized by Managing Automation magazine as PM100 finalists, with Steinwall Scientific beating out Kodak and IBM to take the highest achiever honor. Inbound Logistics magazine named IQMS a Top 100 Logistics Provider for 2011 and most recently, IQMS won The Stevie’s American Business Award in the best new manufacturing product of the year category for its latest software release, EnterpriseIQ 7.8.1.
IQMS’ award-winning new ERP software release arrived on the scene last March with more than 900 new tools and reports across all aspects of the software with a development focus on providing functionality and efficiency. Ninety percent of the updates and changes developed for the latest release were contributed directly from customers through IQMS’ online portal, Community Server. Direct collaboration with the client allows IQMS to deliver useful changes more quickly, increase functionality and take advantage of new and emerging industry technologies. A small sampling of the enhancements includes a VIN Generator application, a mobility application for Smartphones and tablets, a web-based employee portal and sales configuration templates.
“2011 has been an exciting year so far and we anticipate continued success,” said Randy Flamm, president and founder of IQMS. “Our clients continue to increase sales and production as the manufacturing industry steadily pulls out of the recession. Over the last six months, IQMS has been re-investing in itself through staff and development expansion to be able to offer our clients the best possible product when they need it most.”

Oracle Buys Ksplice
Oracle Linux Enhanced with Zero Downtime Software Updates
Oracle today announced that it has acquired Ksplice, Inc., the creator of innovative zero downtime update technology for Linux. The transaction has closed.
The addition of Ksplice’s technology will increase the security, reliability and availability of Oracle Linux by enabling customers to apply security updates, diagnostics patches and critical bug fixes without rebooting.

Vendor Snapshot: Deacom, Inc.
Founded in 1995 in President Jay Deakin’s mother-in-law’s basement, Deacom, Inc. has risen above its humble beginnings to become a well-respected and rapidly growing player in the ERP software market. The vendor’s core offering is the DEACOM Integrated Accounting and Enterprise Resource Planning Software System for building component, modular building, and batch process manufacturers. The software is specifically designed to manage the complexities of the manufacturing industry (e.g., job costing and business process issues) and includes functions such as labor tracking, regulatory reporting, order entry, accounting, production and the like. Deacom’s software is specialized for two key industries: building component manufacturing (e.g., millwork, lumber dealers, modular buildings, building material distributors, etc.) and process/mixed-mode manufacturing (e.g., paints, dyes, inks, coatings, adhesives and sealants, cosmetics, food and beverages, pharmaceuticals, etc.).
Deacom has built a reputation for itself as a full-service ERP software vendor that goes above and beyond to ensure its clients understand the intricacies of its software offerings. Indeed its motto is “Complexity made simple.” In that vein, the company offers an accredited training course through its Deacom University program. Each two-day session, held at Deacom’s Wayne, Pennsylvania headquarters, explicates and teaches system concepts through hands-on experimentation. And to further connect its clients with both the company itself as well as other customers, Deacom also offers a free user’s conference each year. Attendees are invited to network with each other, discuss specific issues with Deacom’s technical support and development teams, and even contribute to the next generation of Deacom products.
Even the anonymous employee comments of Glassdoor.com seem to reflect Deacom’s commitment to its customers. One employee writes: “Because the product is so important to the customers the customers can be demanding at times. There is a lot of pressure to help them figure things out quickly. This is not a company where you can snooze your way through the day.”
And customers seem to be noticing. Deacom recently announced that America’s oldest brewery, D.G. Yuengling & Son, Inc., had chosen Deacom’s ERP software system to integrate its three facilities. Considering a brewery is pretty much everyone’s dream client, the celebrations at Deacom must have lasted far into the night.

SYSPRO ERP Enables Samuel Strapping to Cut Inventories by $2 Million and Still Meet Demand
Samuel Strapping Meets Customer Demand, Facilitates “Green” While Reducing Inventory Levels. SYSPRO ERP, Preactor Scheduling Produce “Inventory Modulation”
SYSPRO, a global, independent developer of ERP software, announced today that Samuel Strapping Systems, manufacturer and supplier of steel and plastic strapping, hand tools, edge protection, stretch film equipment and consumables, as well as standard and custom engineered unitizing equipment, has revealed that SYSPRO ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) has enabled the company to reduce inventories by $2 million while still meeting customer demand. In addition, Samuel Strapping revealed how SYSPRO ERP is also enabling the company to adopt “green” practices.
Patrick Hoffmann, Director of Inventory and Operational Analysis, reports that the effectiveness of SYSPRO Manufacturing Resource Planning (MRP) was initially proven in a study conducted by his company. “Samuel Strapping installed SYSPRO MRP in one of the company’s two plastic plants and did a comparison of the operational effectiveness of both plants. The plant using MRP was better able to maintain inventory levels and meet customer demands despite demand fluctuation.” Hoffmann explains, “Due to the seasonal nature of our products, demand can exceed inventory levels. However, by targeting an inventory level steady around the mean and adjusting production levels, a process we call ‘inventory modulation,’ we maintain steady inventory levels while maintaining delivery schedules.”
Hoffmann also relates how SYSPRO MRP also facilitates “lean” manufacturing at the Samuel Strapping steel plant. “We get our inventory forecasts from SYSPRO ERP and enter them into Preactor Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS) software. The latter runs the figures through a model of the plant based on capacity constraints and inventory target levels, creating a demand scenario, which is then fed into SYSPRO MRP. SYSPRO MRP then creates jobs which are then sent back to the APS software for production line scheduling. The APS software has the ability to tweak dates, which are then fed back into SYSPRO WIP (Work in Process) to align dates and production quantities. For example, the first two months of the year, we had demand exceed capacity by two thousand tons, but due to the just noted process we were still able to meet demand while running on much leaner inventory levels than we ever had in the past.”
Hoffmann says that SYSPRO not only facilitates lean production, but also green practices. “We used to create a paper trail at our plants….now, using bar coding, we no longer have paper following each job…it’s all electronic,” he says. “The data is accumulated on PCs on the shop floor and fed directly into SYSPRO ERP, eliminating all paper on the shop floor. We also input all test results electronically on the shop floor, feeding the quality specs and steel characteristics via bar codes directly into the SYSPRO UniPoint quality system. We’ve eliminated the tons of paper that would follow every single one of our master coils accumulating the specs…”
Comments SYSPRO USA President Joey Benadretti, “Samuel Strapping exemplifies the ways in which a manufacturer can leverage SYSPRO ERP software to approach model plant status, leveraging the software, as it were, to achieve both ‘lean’ and ‘green’ practices.”
