“We recently contracted the expertise of Solution Minds Consulting (SMC) who proved to be a pivotal part in the successful implementation of an Infor M3 ERP platform in our Australian operations in Melbourne and Sydney.”

Their team of experienced personnel consisted of a Success Manager (Independent Trusted Advisor), ERP Project Manager, Business Analyst, and ERP Change Manager, who all helped establish the initial business assessment of the project, leading to a clear outline of defined requirements and scope and a realistic project plan and budget.

Given my background in integrating, managing and supporting ERP systems, I’ve come to understand the importance of partnering with the right organisations to achieve the best results.

When considering the complexities of the project scope and the fact we had a business to run in parallel to project, it was essential that we worked with an organisation with a proven track record of implementing ERP solutions in complex environments. SMC instilled confidence throughout that we were working with the right team. Cultural fit was of paramount importance in our client-side partner selection criteria and we also wanted a local team who would co-locate with the business. It is my pleasure to say that by selecting SMC, we absolutely partnered with the right organisation, leading to a highly successful project. 

The selection of the most suitable external ERP vendor was also very important, as we didn’t have this technical capability in-house. SMC was able to present three strong options based on their comprehensive knowledge and expertise within the Australian market, which they determined through a combination of a fit/gap analysis, defined demo scripts and screenings. This helped us to determine the right vendor for our needs.  

From the initial business assessment and through the ERP vendor selection and implementation, SMC was paramount to delivering each phase and achieving the expected benefits. I highly recommend SMC for future ERP implementations and say with total confidence that their unique set of services and expertise will help others achieve success like we did.”

“Solution Minds Consulting gave us confidence in our ultimate decision to go with NetSuite and the selected implementation partner due to the structured and rigorous Selection process. Solution Minds Consulting provided us with valuable guidance and support during the implementation scoping phase as this formed the basis of the very important implementation project. The outcomes of the scoping phase gave us great confidence that project risks had been mitigated, project deliverables and roles of the respective parties clearly defined. This set us up for a successful outcome. It only seemed logical that we would continue to use Solution Minds Consulting expert services to assist us during the implementation project.”

“We have engaged with Solution Minds Consulting on a number of projects and will continue to do so as we deploy our ‘holistic’ tech strategy. The team bring a wealth of knowledge to decision making and implementation which has saved the Activ Foundation significant time, energy and expense during the course of the journey. I would recommend anyone who is thinking about investing or changing any part of their tech to have a discussion with the Solution Minds Consulting team, and in particular Jamon, it will be very valuable.”
