ERP Organizational Change: Technology Strategy

ERP Organizational Change: Technology Strategy and Keys to Success

Episode Overview – Technology Strategy

In general, at the highest level of categorization, there seems to be consensus on the importance of people and culture, informational technology, and project management for successful ERP implementation. However, these are broad categories. Furthermore, extant research has not reached consensus as to which specific factors are most significant and critical towards ERP organizational change success. In this episode, we would like to focus on IT and technology management and offer some tactical tips, provide some practical guidance, and discuss IT and ERP strategy. 

Please join us as we examine technology strategy. This episode will discuss the definition of IT success, implementation success rates in general, politics and information, the value of IT vision, the power of belief during IT implementations, the most critical components of building an effective IT Strategic Business & Technology Roadmap, and the value of proper systems selection.
