ERP Implementation methods

The Big Bang

The installation of ERP systems of all modules happens across the
entire organization at once. The big bang approach promised to reduce
the integration cost in the condition of thorough and careful execution

Modular Implementation

The method of modular implementation goes after one ERP module at
a time. This limits the scope of implementation usually to one functional
department. This approach suits companies that do not share many
common processes across departments or business units.

Process oriented Implementation

The process-oriented implementation focuses on the support of one or
a few critical business processes which involves a few business units.
