How to Make Business Intelligence Pay-
A Practical Guide for Manufacturers and Distributors
Business Intelligence = Better Decision-making for
Manufacturers and Distributors
Over the last decade, the vast majority of small and midsized businesses (SMBs) have implemented one or more generations of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems to help manage their day-to-day business processes such as accounting, order entry, and operations. Distribution companies have typically augmented these systems with inventory control and warehouse management capabilities, while manufacturing companies have added bills of materials (BOMs) and Material Requirement Planning (MRP I) or Manufacturing Resource Planning (MRP II) functionality. During this time we have seen three distinct waves of business software implementations:
In the first wave, most SMBs were content to simply have the means to get their data (e.g., customer files, time estimates, costs, etc.) into the system correctly.
With the second wave, the objective progressed into making sure the data reflected an accurate likeness of how things actually transpired (forecasts, planning parameters, shipping alternatives, budgeted vs. actual expenses, etc.).

A Complete Software Evaluation Guide for
Small and Midsized Wholesaler-Distributors
Implementing the proper business system can be as strategic
and important to your bottom line as expanding your warehouse or bringing
on new product lines. However, implementing the wrong solution or choosing
an inexperienced solution provider can have a serious negative effect
on your business — from lost opportunities and late orders to
bankruptcy in some extreme cases. Consequently, it is imperative that
wholesale distributors take time to clearly define their business processes
and objectives before they start their search for new business software.
There are literally dozens of software products on the
market today to help wholesale distributors automate and manage day-to-day
business requirements such as accounting, inventory management, order
entry, and manufacturing. The good news is that distributors have plenty
of options. The bad news is that many companies feel overwhelmed by
the evaluation process because they don’t have a roadmap to help
them identify the right systems for their unique business and
technical requirements.
This guide is designed to help wholesale distributors
manage the entire software evaluation cycle from needs analysis and
budget planning through software selection and implementation.
