Why ERP initiatives fail — and what CIOs can do to fix them
Gartner® research shows that more than 80% of ERP initiatives in midsize enterprises are not meeting expectations of executives or end-users, leading to reputational damage for the CIO. Midsize enterprise CIOs must guide the organization to build a clear vision and purpose for the ERP initiative to achieve full success.
We believe this Gartner® report will show you how to:
- Create an ERP vision that drives alignment — not just implementation
- Avoid the most common blind spots that derail CIO credibility
- Turn skeptical business units into champions of change
- Lead the organization with purpose, not just process
If you're planning an ERP initiative, or already in the middle of one, we believe this report gives you the leadership edge you need.
