Statistics proves the importance in ERP solutions and the magnitude of its impact, both now and the future. ERP solutions are becoming a vital component in organizations, expecting to garner $49.5 billion by 2020. It is critical that companies understand the importance of IT, if they wish to keep up with today’s business world. A survey conducted by Panorama Consulting has shown that 82% of organizations have reported an improvement in key or all business processes post implementation.

All departments and functions are integrated across a company into a complete system to streamline processes and information across the entire organization. The central component of all systems is a shared database that supports multiple functions used by various business units.

Due to the integration of the solution into all departments and inter-connectivity, it is also vital to choose the correct software. Gartner has identified that globally around 55% to 75% of all ERP projects have failed to meet their core requirements due to wrong software selection, lack of awareness, skills and expertise.
