Independent ERP & Business Systems Strategy
CMC helps Australian organisations decide what to do with their ERP and business systems before they commit budget. Should you upgrade, re-implement or replace? Which systems should be consolidated, and in what order? For 46 years CMC has answered these questions independently: we sell no software and have no vendor partnerships.
Recent strategy work includes Detmold Group, where CMC ran a QA review of a systems upgrade alongside a market assessment of alternative ERP and WMS vendors with a 10-year total cost of ownership model. Other clients include PVH Brands Australia, Flick Anticimex, Segafredo Bean Alliance, King Living, Eastcoast Beverages, Real Pet Food Company, Martogg Group, Polyaire and Platinum Cables.

Frequently asked questions
What is an ERP strategy?
A plan for how your ERP and business systems will support the business over the next five to ten years, covering what to keep, upgrade or replace, the costs, risks and the order of projects.
Should we upgrade our current ERP or replace it?
CMC compares the cost, risk and benefits of upgrading with a market assessment of alternatives, including ball-park costs and a 10-year total cost of ownership, so the executive team can decide with evidence.
Why is independent ERP advice important?
Vendors, resellers and many consultancies earn money from software sales or implementation. CMC earns nothing from any vendor, so its advice is based only on your interests.
