Every #smallbusiness should #budget for more than the #software #implementation

One thing I've learned about ERP implementations is that the timeline only tells half the story.

You can build a project plan, set deadlines, and estimate costs. Then reality shows up.

You discover data issues. Requirements change. Priorities shift. Teams need more support than expected.

That's why I always tell people to budget for more than just the software and consulting.

Sometimes you need temporary help. Sometimes you need people focused on data cleansing. Sometimes you need extra capacity just to keep the business running while the implementation moves forward.

The best implementations don't just budget for the plan.

They budget for everything that happens when the plan meets reality.
