Why Picking a Great Vendor is Key for Implementing New Software

Implementing new software in your business can be a daunting task, which is why picking a great vendor is key.

Part of the selection process should be about coming to understand the vendor, not just the software. Set yourself up for success with a vendor that comes with extensive experience in your industry – so that if issues arise, they have experience solving these problems. Similarly, vendors that have a proven methodology to achieve on-time and on-budget implementations will mean that the implementation is much likelier to run smoothly, meaning there will be less roadblocks on the way to success.

A good software partner can help you with best practice, in order to streamline your business. They should be able to make your business more profitable, easier to grow or more appealing for acquisition, depending on your goals for your business.

It’s also important to select a vendor that can provide advice on how to make sure your workforce is on board with change management. Giving your workforce the skills and tools to transition successfully may not be seen as a crucial part of the implementation, but your workforce will be the ones using the software, and if they don’t embrace it and learn a new way to complete their roles, then the software implementation will be considered a failure. On the flip side, if they embrace and adopt the changes, then the results will help your business, no matter the goal.
