ConfecCo’s SAP manager suggested that benchmarking and monitoring the system performance was more important than change management, training and support.  
In the case of ConfecCo’s ERP implementation, the benefits were achieved by streamlining business processes and removing redundancies. The SAP platform was seen as a tool and provided a mechanism for achieving the results.
The use of the ERP implementation business case and from comparing those outcomes that had been delivered by the SAP platform, provided the management with a basis of what returns had been achieved. ConfecCo’s implementation team would use industrial benchmarks to monitor and evaluate the performance improvements delivered by its SAP platform.
The use of benchmarks was necessary to track areas that still required attention for optimisation and fixing. “It’s (ERP system) a mechanism to achieve greater visibility, quicker information, better management of your resources … or whatever.
But setting your benchmarks within the system is probably one of the key things (and provides) visibility of what’s going on in any particular business process or business system, you can then from a management perspective, track and manage against that to deliver the benefits” (SAP Project Manager)

How was the change management implemented into the confecco company ?

An implementation of an ERP software has a wide time range effects on the organization and business processes and activities. By understanding this approach, the confecco company implemented the SAP software in a phased approach.
Firstly in the confecco company erp software, sales and distribution modules were launched and the user feedback was taken from the selected end users & customers. Most end users were kept remaining on the legacy systems. The phased approach increased the project completion time but it reduced the cost and failure possibilities of system.
In 1995, there was a mindset in the senior management that the SAP software was yet to give its return on investment. Many version upgrades were performed until the completion of 3 years. With the version upgradation, many new modules were added like - HR, CRM, business intelligence etc.
The implementation team had realized that the erp software will be resisted by the staff and only to provide training and support would not be sufficient for successful SAP adoption in the company.
Benefits -
  • increasing the external linkage to the other organization
  • employees ready for IT flexibility and change management
  • improvement the product quality and services
  • reduction in lost orders and cost
  • increase in the ease and modular flexibility

WHat were the erp changes in Govdep after the post implementation ?

The Govdep SAP ERP implementation can not be considered as a case of the successful ERP implementation, because it was being inspired from the NPWS case 1999. All the major upgrades in the post implementation phase were also inspired from the similar government agency. The last updation was performed in 2007 as SAP 7.0 in which additional modules were attached for credit management and warehousing.
The SAP manager always commented for the new IT policies implementation in Govdep, so that the ERP software and post upgrades can be implemented in a systematic and methodological manner. New frameworks were organized so that the new requirements could be fit into the new ERP software and unnecessary customisation can be prevented to reduce implementation costs.
After 2007. there was no major upgrades in the SAP software. Some functionality changes were performed due to changing requirements and for managing the internal and external environment necessities. Later on the company started to realize that there is no real benefits of implementing new upgrades in the software.
There were many changes occurred when the SAP implementation started to think that how business processes and operations could be performed together to get more value. There were many issues when the complete method of using the ERP software was heavily optimised and customised.
There were some issues where the increasing number of employees was the main reason of the change in the erp system working. Their travel and transportation was manageable for more than the 600 users. Later on after some customisations, it was manageable for the user capacity of more than 2000 users.

So Govdep had to upgrade the whole system on a continuous basis.
Govdep had already acquired some newcomer agencies in which new burdensome business processes were implemented which were described as per according to the new erp software of SAP because the consolidation of data was very necessary. So there was little flexibility and much burden in the workflow.
At some areas, Govdep had to restructure the complete work environment. Just like the - At Finance department, regular and new standard workflows were decided and implemented. To the end user, it was made mandatory to provide training sessions for performing the business operations effectively.
There were two type of training sessions were organized - online and face to face. The online trainings were usually for those users who were interested in taking training in their own time and in face to face training phase, the trainers themselves provided the training to the relevant staff. Training sessions were organized in the routine sessions so workers can not feel the extra workload.
