About the ERP selection advisory category
Selection advisors and analysts differ fundamentally from implementation partners: they work vendor-neutrally and without licence or implementation commission. Their fee is paid directly by the selecting company, which removes conflicts of interest. Typical tasks include requirements workshops with the business units, a requirements specification at function and process level, market research, structured vendor demos and a final recommendation with pros and cons per vendor.
Anyone making a six- or seven-figure investment seeks an independent second opinion — this is as true in the ERP market as it is in real estate or M&A. Selection advisory typically costs a fraction of the overall budget, but can make the difference between a productive ERP project and a struggling one.
