Let ReInforce Technology give you a helping hand.
“The more information the better” – is not always the answer as information overload can cause a bottleneck and make decisions hard, especially when you are trying to collate disparate information from different sources. A classic case is the use of spreadsheets to model a few extra calculations, because the ERP system doesn’t quite deliver the information in the right way.
Businesses are increasingly challenged; competition is tough, there is a squeeze on costs and there are increasingly complex operations and processes. To stay ahead, access to the right information in a timely manner is key and ensuring management has that access should be a business priority. But invariably information is held here, there and everywhere in siloed, disconnected systems which make it almost impossible to pull together in a meaningful way.
This is where a 3rd party consultant can make a huge difference as they can spot new areas for operational improvement with a fresh pair of eyes. Performing an internal audit can identify these inefficiencies and understand the reliance on spreadsheets. The audit can then provide recommendations on customising and improving the core ERP so that it is the central source of all key data that supports decision-making.
It is these kinds of consulting projects that rationalise systems and helps your ERP reach operational excellence because the key information is readily available as intelligence, rather than holding back the business.
