PUT SIMPLY: EFFECTIVE IMPLEMENTATION IS THE KEY. THERE ARE TWO CRUCIAL STAGES TO THIS. THE FIRST IS A DETAILED, STANDARDISED BUSINESS REQUIREMENTS BUILDING PROCESS THAT HELPS COMPANIES TO DEFINE THEIR BUSINESS OBJECTIVES FOR THE ERP SYSTEM.
 
THE SECOND STAGE IS CAREFUL PROJECT PLANNING WITH PREDETERMINED DELIVERABLES TO BE COMPLETED ACCORDING TO A FIXED TIMELINE BY RESPONSIBLE STAKEHOLDERS IN BOTH THE IMPLEMENTATION PROVIDER AND THE CLIENT COMPANY. REMEMBER, IF YOUR BUSINESS PLAN ISN’T VIABLE, A CLOUD-BASED ERP/CRM SYSTEM WILL NOT SOLVE YOUR PROBLEMS. IT IS ALSO ESSENTIAL TO MAKE SURE THE CLOUD-BASED SYSTEM PROVIDES FUNCTIONS THAT SERVE YOUR BUSINESS GOALS EFFECTIVELY.
