• The project of implementation
underestimates the scope, size and
complexity of the information solution;
• The organisation is not ready for changes
brought about by the integral information
solution;
• The project team is not selected from
among the most experienced and
trustworthy professionals;
• Inappropriate education of employees, who
are thus not able to satisfactory manage the
system;
• Accuracy of data is not assured;
• System efficiency measures do not allow
for successful changes to take place
(expectations of the organisation are not
realistic);
• Questions regarding the method of system
implementation in many parts of
organisation have not been appropriately
resolved;
• Technical problems.
The success of the implemented ERP system
depends on numerous factors, as it embraces all
business operations of an organisation. The
participation of the management, the
modernisation of existing business processes, the
possibility to connect the integral information
solutions with other business information
systems, cooperation between advisers and
employees and, last but not least, highly
educated staff are of key importance [2].
The implementation of ERP system may also
represent huge financial costs for the company.
According to some authors, expenses for the
implementation of integral information solution
for a medium-sized enterprise may amount to
between $2m and $4m. On the other hand, the
expenses for the implementation of ERP systems
in a large enterprise can exceed $100m [14].
