Information Connected focuses on linking various data points to equip business owners and managers with the necessary information for creating, tracking, and assessing Key Performance Indicators that influence all business areas. Over the past twenty years, we've collaborated with numerous leading ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems. We found that many of these systems are quite generic, designed to universally apply to several industries primarily for the sake of increasing sales. This approach was straightforward for ERP providers: clients were expected to modify their processes to fit the ERP system, make a few adjustments to reports and fields, and then spend years trying to get the system operational, all while budgeting at least $250,000 and a significant amount of time. Unfortunately, even with these investments, the success rate was disappointingly low, with an average failure rate of 35%, meaning many companies never fully implemented the systems. Such investments eventually jeopardized the company's financial stability. As a result, managers and owners often felt a sense of failure, leading them to rely on less efficient methods that worked, while departments continued to develop their own isolated systems to measure what they deemed important, missing a comprehensive view of the organization.
