INTRODUCTION

Three years ago, we got a request from an owner of a construction company

He was exhausted and very concerned about how to improve his business further
Most of the business processes were concentrated in his hands
It meant business couldn't grow up, it became noncompetitive and we needed to automatize it
02.
CLIENT

It was unusual request for our company

We decided to find out more about the company and its status.
Industry
The client is a small construction company which is in charge of cottages building and renovating and apartments renovating as well
Staff
There are 20 workers and builders in the company, managers are absent
Potential
The company is unable to take more projects, because all of them are done by the director personally and manually
Competitiveness
The company is not competitive because its owner is the weakest link
03.
WHY

That's why we decided to use ERP to help client

The ERP philosophy is quite simple. Iinformation is entered into the system once by an employee who is responsible for a particular function.
Then it can be used by other employees according to access rights. And of course processes of transferring and processing of this information are automatised.

PROBLEMS

List of problems

In our work we encountered several mistakes that we recommend you to avoid. Here are main recommendations for you.
You need to assign
a project manager
In our case, there was no the project manager but only business owner, because he could not delegate this task to anyone. On the one hand, it was great - the owner understood the company's business processes very deep, on the other, he was very busy and we had to compete for his time.
You need to control
changes
The introduction of the ERP system inevitably leads to changes in the company. And these changes are needed to be managed. Since the business owner didn't do it, the staff reacted negatively, despite the obvious advantages of those changes. It should be gradual, reasonable and understandable for everyone in the company.
You need to stimulate employees to use ERP
The transition to the new ERP was delayed in time in our case, because the owner and employees continued to use old tools and software, moreover duplicating information in both. It easy to explain - it is more usual for everyone to use tools they used to. But it leads to extracharges and reduces value of ERP.
You need to be ready for additional costs
Despite the fact that we had prepared technical specification for the first part of work, addition changes began to appear in the process, mostly from the customer. We warned him in advance that it would be a cause of extra charges on project, and he accepted it.
