Choosing a new software application for your business, whether for the ERP as a whole or a specific component to potentially integrate to an ERP, is a detailed process that is best serviced with a combination of industry, software, and selection process knowledge, as well as experience with vendor relationships management. Having a designated leader driving this process and ensuring that the correct stakeholders from the business are included, is critical to the success of the process. An independent consultant is often used to fill this role.
