Process and system analyses during the introduction of new software

Ddigitalization has revolutionized business processes in companies and permanently changed the landscape of IT systems. For this reason, it is important to focus on processes.

In an increasingly networked economy, ERP systems in particular have become indispensable tools that increase process efficiency, improve decision-making, and optimize customer interaction.

ERP systems – an overview

ERP systems are integrated management systems that connect and control all aspects of a company – from production and logistics to sales and service. They enable the flawless exchange of information, promote process efficiency, and help make better business decisions.

Process analysis

Before a company implements an ERP system, a comprehensive process analysis is essential. This involves evaluating every procedure, task, and interaction within the company. The purpose of this analysis is to identify inefficient processes and potential weaknesses that can be improved or eliminated by the ERP system.

System analysis

A system analysis is carried out in parallel with the process analysis. This involves analyzing the company's technical infrastructure to check whether it can meet the requirements of the ERP system. This analysis can also be used to identify whether existing systems can be replaced by the ERP system or integrated with it.

Requirements for project managers when introducing new systems

The introduction of an ERP system is a challenging project that requires careful planning, technical expertise, and excellent leadership skills. The project manager must have knowledge of business processes, IT architecture, and change management. In addition, strong communication skills and the ability to inspire employees to embrace change and involve them in the process are essential.

Importance of process definition

A clearly defined process is the key to success when introducing an ERP system. Without it, the project is likely to end in chaos and confusion, with inefficient results and some dissatisfied stakeholders. Process definition ensures that everyone involved knows what to do, when to do it, and how to do it. This helps to avoid confusion and ensures that the ERP system meets the specific requirements of the company.
