Send us Fan MailMost ERP initiatives fail well before software selection, often when organizations reduce the decision to feature comparisons, vendor demos, and procurement-style checklists that obscure deeper architectural and operational realities. Influenced by marketing narratives, limited internal strategy experience, and heavy reliance on implementation partners, teams frequently overlook critical factors such as data readiness, integration design, migration feasibility, legal exposure, and behavioral constraints—leading to overcustomization, cost overruns, delayed go-lives, and systems that reinforce silos rather than resolve them. This webinar reframes ERP selection through the lens of ERP Readiness, positioning it as a structured discipline that aligns leadership and cross-functional teams on the true implications of ERP before downstream execution begins. By evaluating process, data, organizational, technological, legal, and behavioral readiness through a staged, decision-gated approach, organizations can follow a practical 3–6 month framework that produces actionable deliverables, reduces implementation risk, and significantly improves selection outcomes for high-stakes ERP decisions.Video: https://www.elevatiq.com/events-and-webinars/erp-readiness-why-checklist-driven-approaches-fail/Questions for Panelists?🔗Sam Gupta: linkedin.com/in/samguptausa/🔗Shrestha Dash: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shrestha-dash-662b00204/Background Soundtrack: Away From You – Mauro SommFor more information on growth strategies for SMBs using ERP and digital transformation, visit our community at wbs. rocks or elevatiq.com.
