Strategic Process Review (SPR)

Recent Review?

Have you had a recent overall review of your current ERP system? A complete system audit can often show you areas of improvement that you didn't even know you had within your current system. This can help guide a decision to either optimize the use of your current system or, if your needs have grown beyond that, to help outline key reasons to start looking at a new software that can grow with you, like Epicor Kinetic.

Evaluated Options?

Have you evaluated all 'outside' systems, spreadsheets, work instructions, etc., and how they could be integrated into your ERP system? Especially for a company that has been in business for a long time, there are usually procedures outside of the system that grow harder and harder to maintain. Our team can help show ways that you can bring in all your data into one ERP platform, like Epicor Kinetic.

New Features?

Do you know what the latest features of your current ERP software are and how they might help you expand your use of the system? Epicor regularly releases new versions of their software to meet the latest and greatest trends of the industry. Our team can help you navigate an upgrade to make best use of these new features.

Future Outlook?

Do you have a strategic document that explains in detail your system initiatives for the next one, three, and five years? Such a document can be used for budgeting, planning, forecasting, and top management review. We can help you put that document together and outline the detailed step-by-step process needed to achieve your goals.

If you answered "no" to any of the above challenges, then the Strategic Process Review (SPR) is for you!

With EpiCenter’s Strategic Process Review^SM, you get an advanced internal planning tool that encompasses a 360-degree view of your organization, providing an objective and practical approach to understanding how your business operates. The SPR delivers a roadmap that assists you in an objective evaluation of your current systems and infrastructure, helping you develop a clear vision of what your future business platform should be.

Consider using an SPR if you need to:

At EpiCenter, everything we do is customer-oriented. The SPR is done in one to two days. We begin by working with all stakeholders, from owners and senior management to shop floor personnel; it is a top down, bottom up approach. By examining in detail how your business is run today and how you want it to evolve tomorrow, together, we improve the business process and identify the ways in which your software supports your business goals.

Some things we'll examine include:

What or who in your organization can add more value to your business vision?
What improvements will better your operation perspective, inventory scheduling, material management, etc.?
What products or customers are most profitable, and what is the best area for you to increase profitable revenue?
How does your use of the software impact the business and the people in your organization?
Which work orders/jobs are profitable and which need improvement?
How the organization can maximize efficiency from quote to cash.
Identification of best practices vs. current practices.
Present state vs.future state (and how to fulfill the organization's long-term business vision).
