30 Common Fears That Derail ERP Projects—And How to Solve Them
Thinking about an ERP project? If you’re feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or afraid of making the wrong decision, you’re not alone!
ERP systems are complex, expensive, and high stakes. One wrong choice can cost your organization time, money, and trust. This checklist walks you through 30 of the most common concerns decision-makers face before selecting an ERP system—and gives you practical, proven steps to address each one.
Whether you’re just starting or deep in the planning phase, use this as your roadmap to move forward with clarity and confidence.
1. “We know we need an ERP… but we’re not sure what success even looks like.”
What to do: Don’t start with software—start with strategy. Define your business goals like cost savings, automation, or reporting. Let those goals drive your entire ERP process.
2. “We don’t have time to run workshops. Can’t we just jump into vendor demos?”
What to do: Skipping planning to ‘save time’ costs more later. Run stakeholder workshops now to capture pain points, workflows, and must-haves. This becomes your ERP roadmap.
