AUTOMATION TRENDS IN ERP SYSTEMS










Automation is becoming more important in ERP, especially with tools like robotic
process automation (RPA) and low-code platforms. With these tools, businesses
can automate processes more, cutting down on manual work and making tasks faster
and more accurate. RPA handles tasks that repeat often, like entering data,
processing invoices, and doing payroll, reducing errors. Low-code platforms let
businesses make custom apps quickly for their needs. When RPA and low-code
platforms are combined with ERP systems, they automate regular tasks and make
custom solutions.







TRENDS AND PREFERENCES IN ERP SOLUTIONS






AI and automation in ERP systems improve data analysis, making it simpler to
collect and understand information from different parts of a business. This
helps to uncover insights about performance, predicting demand, customer habits,
areas of inefficiency, and financial risks. These advanced analytics, when built
into ERP systems, assist users in making smart decisions and getting ready for
future challenges.






The ERP market is moving towards cloud-based solutions, especially as remote
work becomes more common. More businesses with operations in different places
around the world are choosing cloud-based ERP systems because they offer
flexibility. Studies found that 64% of companies looking for an ERP are
interested in a SaaS system, with 21% preferring fully cloud-based options,
while 15% are choosing on-premises systems. In fact, 89% of companies prioritize
accounting as the top feature in an ERP system.






The world of ERP software has been around for about 40 years and keeps getting
more competitive. In 2021, the global market worth of ERP software reached
$50.57 billion. This growth happens because of changes in technology and how
businesses work. Because of this, new companies are joining the ERP market and
becoming leaders because of their ideas or how big they've become.






More companies are choosing ERP systems, which are expected to become even more
popular. The market for these systems is predicted to go from $50.57 billion to
$140.14 billion by 2030, growing at a rate of 15.9% each year. Plus, 80% of new
implementations will be cloud-based.






Traditional ERP systems, which used to rely on a central cloud, are now
changing. They're becoming more flexible and spread out, using multiple clouds
and edge computing. When choosing an ERP system, companies need to find one that
can work with various cloud platforms and use edge computing. This helps process
data faster, which is crucial for making quick decisions, especially for
operations in different places.







EMBRACING CUSTOMIZED ERP FOR DIFFERENT INDUSTRIES






Only a small percentage, about 3%, of companies use standard functions for their
ERPs, showing that most prefer custom or industry-specific solutions. While
specialized software can cost more, it's often worth it for industries needing
specific features. For instance, chemical manufacturers require tools for safety
data sheets, while automotive companies need features for warranties and
recalls. Pharmaceutical ERPs handle compliance, while agriculture ERPs manage
crop scheduling and weather predictions. Retail, construction, food and
beverage, oil and gas, textiles, HR, and education are among the other
industries that utilize customized ERPs.







OVERCOMING ROADBLOCKS IN IMPLEMENTING GENERIC ERP SYSTEMS







OVERCOMING RESISTANCE






Resistance to change in organizations mainly comes from how people interact.
They might be scared of what they don't know, prefer sticking to what they're
used to, or not getting enough information.






Even though new ideas could be great, employees might still hesitate because
they're afraid their jobs will change, they don't fully get it, or they're just
really attached to how things are now. This human side is super important for
the success of any big project.






Understanding Why People Resist:






People are used to doing things a certain way and might struggle to switch to
new ways without seeing clear benefits right away. Comments like "We've always
done it this way" or "I don't think it'll work" show this resistance.






How to get past resistance?






 * Get everyone on board early: If you get different groups involved and excited
   about the project from the start, they're less likely to resist later on.
   Make sure they understand the good things before making changes.

 * Manage the change: Keep everyone updated on what's happening with the
   project, let them share their thoughts, and encourage them to come up with
   ideas. Giving training and celebrating progress can make people more open to
   the changes.






Even though the new ERP system might make perfect sense, how people feel about
it and what they're used to still really matters. If you ignore this human side,
your project could be in trouble.







OPTIMIZING DATA ACCURACY AND CONSOLIDATION






Data holds immense importance for any organization, and having incorrect or
unreadable data is not acceptable. When organizations switch their old data to a
new ERP system, they face the challenge of making sure the transition goes
smoothly and that the data remains accurate. Sometimes, the old data might not
fit well with the new system, leading to confusion and errors.






Here's Why It's a Big Deal:






Think of the ERP system as a giant library filled with crucial business
information. If the data isn't organized properly, it's like trying to find a
book in a messy library – it's frustrating and time-consuming. Bad data can mess
up how the ERP system works, making it less reliable and efficient.






This affects decision-making, processes, and how smoothly the organization runs.






So, what's the fix?






 * Make sure to carefully plan and test everything: Spend time planning and
   executing the data transfer carefully. It's really important to manage the
   data well to keep it accurate in the ERP system.

 * Use technology and be prepared for problems: Use technology and good
   practices to make sure data is accurate, easy to get to, and useful for all
   parts of the organization. Keep an eye on things and fix any problems
   quickly.







CUSTOMIZATION AND ADAPTABILITY






 * Organizations aim to match their systems with how they work. Making too many
   changes can make things more complicated, cost more to maintain, and make it
   harder to update later.

 * Finding the right mix is key when adjusting the ERP system to fit their needs
   and keeping it flexible for the long run.

 * Companies should carefully look at what they need, sorting out what changes
   are crucial and what might make things too complex. The answer is picking an
   ERP system that's flexible but still has all the important features.







BOOSTING USER ENGAGEMENT AND TRAINING






 * Good training for everyone using a new computer system is really important
   during its setup. If people don't get enough training, it makes things
   harder, slows down work, and makes users annoyed.

 * When you get a new computer system, make sure the training is thorough. Use
   programs, tutorials, and good instructions.
