An ineffective or outdated legacy ERP system can cost you a significant amount of revenue and operating expenses. However, deciding to implement a new ERP system is not for the faint of heart.
Statistics show that manufacturing companies, on average, hold on to their legacy ERP systems between 8-12 years. Some even continue to use ERPs long after they have been sunsetted by their software vendors and are no longer supported.
The cost of doing nothing is high. Holding on to a legacy ERP system that you’ve outgrown can drain your operational efficiency, cripple your competitiveness, and create barriers to growth.
For many manufacturers, one of the biggest hurdles to upgrading their ERP has been the lack of a qualified resource with the specialized expertise to guide them through the transition.
