This PPT slide, part of the 19-slide Health Check for an ERP program PowerPoint presentation, presents a comparative analysis of 2 strategic options for managing an ERP program, emphasizing the limitations of incremental changes versus the benefits of a structured program restructure. On the left side, "Option 2: Incremental Process addressing ad hoc issues" illustrates a reactive approach. It depicts a timeline where actions are taken in response to immediate circumstances, leading to stagnation. The graph indicates a goal trajectory that remains flat, suggesting that merely addressing issues as they arise does not facilitate significant progress. The phrase "Where can we be with a nearby 'go live date'" highlights the urgency, but also the superficiality of this approach.
On the right, "Option 3: Program restructure" outlines a more proactive strategy. This option is characterized by a clear vision of the desired future state, specifically 5 years ahead in terms of asset management and ERP. The graph shows a more dynamic path toward achieving goals, with deliberate resets of the program to ensure alignment with long-term objectives. The phrase "Reset aspects of the program to move forward" underscores the importance of adaptability and foresight in achieving sustainable results.
The slide effectively contrasts these 2 methodologies, suggesting that a focus on long-term planning and structured program management is essential for success. It serves as a cautionary note against the pitfalls of incrementalism, encouraging decision-makers to consider a more holistic approach to ERP implementation. This insight is critical for executives aiming to optimize their ERP initiatives and achieve meaningful outcomes.
