About E-Business And ERP: Rapid Implementation And
Product Description Proven strategies for companies seeking to accelerate an ERP implementation Almost all large and midsize corporations worldwide will be involved in implementing enterprise resource planning and/or e-business applications over the next two to three years. This is the only book that discusses how to implement a rapid ERP system and shows how e-business is impacted by the implementation of an ERP system. This book also provides valuable tried and true methods of keeping the project under or within budget. A quality ERP transaction foundation is a prerequisite for taking advantage of many of the new e-business opportunities that executives have placed high on their list of priorities. This valuable guide examines the strengths and weaknesses of ERP and shows when rapid implementation is not appropriate. The book also provides outsourcing alternatives and the use of application service alternatives, and shows how e-business is impacted by the implementation of an ERP system. Murrell G.

Review "this is a useful book for any organisation thinking of implementing a new ERP system" (Sunday Business, 26 August, 2001) "...useful guide...extensive exploration...give you lots of useful advice and assistance..." (Supply Management, 18 October, 2001) "...does provide a comprehensive overview of how an ERP implementation should be planned and managed..." (Information Age, December 2001) From the Inside Flap While Enterprise Resource Planning has been a factor in manufacturing since the early 1990s, most other industries are just now stepping up to the ERP implementation challenge. An effective ERP backbone is often a prerequisite to achieving the benefits from the new e-business applications. Both types of applications need to be implemented in shorter time frames than were typical in the past. E-Business and ERP outlines a new approach-and provides an innovative toolset-to understand and achieve a rapid implementation of ERP and e-business applications. From presenting a compelling case for making rapid implementation the preferred method, to providing guidance on the factors that must be present before an organization is ready to initiate a successful rapid implementation project, this timely book builds a formidable case for the viability and necessity of a fully operational rapid implementation scenario, including: * Three different approaches for selecting effective, appropriate application packages * Tools-called accelerators-that are necessary to support a rapid implementation approach * Issues essential to supporting the IT aspects of these projects In addition, E-Business and ERP covers the trends and changes in business and particularly, the packaged software industry that will have a decided impact on implementations for years to come, along with factors that are necessary before an organization can launch a successful rapid-implementation project. E-Business and ERP explains how to select application systems and design the business processes needed in today's fast-moving e-business environment, and implement them in a third or less of the time that such projects have taken in the past. It is the first book to comprehensively explain the requirements of effective package-enabled process redesign, combine those requirements with the Internet-age necessities of rapid implementation, and provide proven strategies to accelerate package implementation-as well as methods for keeping the project focused on benefits and under control. From the Back Cover Strategies for Cost-Effective E-Business ERP Implementation-in the Shortened Time Horizons of the Internet Age The need for seamless Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and e-business implementation is nothing new. What is new is the shorter time frames that now dominate the organization
