Reviewing the ERP contract – the decisive factor for ERP project success
Reviewing the ERP contract is a crucial step that is often underestimated but is central to the success of your ERP project. A fully reviewed ERP contract lays the foundation for a smooth implementation and long-term operation of your ERP software. A thorough contract review will help you uncover hidden costs, clarify unclear performance obligations and ensure that all technical and functional requirements are precisely defined.
Common problems caused by deficiencies in ERP contracts
Inadequately worded or incomplete ERP contracts can lead to significant problems:
- Hidden costs: Unexpected additional services, license fees and high maintenance costs can blow the budget.
- Unclear performance obligations: Misunderstandings and conflicts often arise when responsibilities and expectations are not clearly defined.
- Lack of flexibility: A rigid contract makes it difficult to adapt and expand the ERP system, which can hinder the company’s further development.
- Delays and quality problems: Unclear technical requirements and inadequate service level agreements (SLAs) often lead to delays and quality problems.
- Right of withdrawal: If a project is on the verge of failure, it is crucial whether there is an exit clause that allows the contract to be terminated or adapted early.
