Selecting your SAP Business One Implementation Partner - Consensus International

The decision has been made. SAP Business One, one of the top ERP software for small to midsized businesses, will be implemented in your company to manage your entire business and address industry-specific needs. Now, what to look for when selecting your SAP Business One Partner to ensure a successful ERP project?
 

To help, we have created the following guide which covers 5 key areas to take into consideration when selecting your SAP B1 partner to implement and support your ERP system.

1. Experience

When it comes to selecting your SAP Business One partner, experience matters.

Look for an SAP B1 partner that has proven experience with successful ERP implementations within your industry, a good understanding of key trends, challenges, and regulations involved in your industry, and follow best practice rules.

In addition, choose a certified by SAP partner who can manage consulting, implementation, integrations and services, everything in line with your business requirements, like Consensus International.

In short, working with an experience partner will smooth the process, anticipate problems before they arise, and leverage their know-how.

2. Compatibility

Another important aspect when choosing your SAP Business One implementation partner is to make sure that the values of your company are compatible with those of the partner you are evaluating.

The consulting team from the partner will become part of your team. It is all about human interactions so make sure they are a great fit. It will result in a long-term relationship.

3. Customizations

After almost a thousand of SAP Business One implementations during the last 33+ years, we can tell that sometimes out-of-the-box functionality of B1 are not tailored to fit your unique needs.

Make sure that the SAP Business One implementation partner has expertise with customizations in case are needed as well as the resources to manage them.

Consensus international offers customization services to integrate them with your business process along with SAP Business One.

4. Training and Support

Without exception, all ERP implementations require post-Go-Live support.

Choose an SAP Business One implementation partner who can manage your support needs, not only after the Go-Live but also during your journey with the system.

Additionally, user’s training is a critical piece to look for when selecting your SAP Business One partner. Make sure they adhere the B1 implementation methodology.

A great partner will ensure a smooth transition and guarantee success.

5. Industry Knowledge

The greatest combination is choosing an implementation partner with a deep knowledge on SAP Business One and experience in your industry.

Find a specialist in your industry that can leverage valuable insights and, most importantly, that ensure regulations and compliance are covered in your SAP Business One implementation.

6. Bonus: Ask for a Demo

During your SAP B1 implementation partner evaluation, ask for a solution demo to see SAP Business One in action so you can have a clear idea of how the software will work for your business.

The right SAP Business One partner should be able to go over the modules included in SAP Business One and simulate business scenarios that you can relate to your business.
