The cost of an ERP is one of the most complex aspects of acquiring this type of solution. The following are some of the most important aspects of calculating ERP cost:

1. The number of users and/or the number of transactions supported by the ERP.
2. Complexity of ERP modules, features, functionalities, customization, and scope of implementation.
3. On premise deployment versus cloud or hybrid deployment.
4. Maintenance fees, hardware price, and cost of upgrades for on premise solutions.
5. Implementation costs, such as software/hardware configuration, data migration, or end user training.

A successful ERP implementation is the difference between an ERP which functions and an ERP that provides outstanding return on investment (ROI) by supporting specific business objectives.

1. Select the ERP solution which best matches your business goals and processes.
2. Map the journey of your business interactions with the ERP system, including customizations.
3. Create a clear implementation schedule and budget, including measurable goals and objectives.
4. Identify a change management team, responsible for dealing with uncertainties, unexpected issues or resistance towards new business processes and/or IT systems.
5. Create a team of stakeholders, including department heads and end users, who will carry out various aspects of the ERP implementation, including providing or assisting with training.

It is important to remember that the ERP life cycle lends itself to continual improvement by fine-tuning the technology to better serve business processes which support specific objectives.
