Go‑Live Without Meltdown: Rapid Implementation for Makers

ERP horror stories are real—multi‑month, or even greater than a year, projects ending in disappointment. Small teams on tight margins cannot afford wastage. Focus on quick wins, build momentum, then scale it up and out.

The Zero‑Drama Plan

1. Quick Win – Pick one pain: quoting custom sheet‑metal jobs, forecasting apparel demand or controlling recipe yields. Make it perfect in week 1.
2. Expansion – Add scheduling, inventory and reporting in weeks 2‑3. Avoid the temptation to digitize everything at once. Manufacturing operations are complex.
3. Optimization – Integrate advanced workflows, analytics and external systems in week 4+. 70 % of digital initiatives fail due to resistance and underestimating complexity—don’t be one of them.
