Independent research, written for the people who approve the money.

ERP Executive publishes vendor-neutral analysis of the decisions behind an ERP program: what it will cost, which support deadline forces a choice, whether an integrator's proposal holds up, and when a program is drifting before the status report admits it. Every article leads with the finding, carries a number or a named source in each section, and is written at a tenth-grade reading level.

How we write

We take the buyer's side of the table. Figures come from published research and vendor documentation, attributed on first use, with the source's interest named when it has one. Where the site offers a rule of thumb, a cost ratio, or a threshold, we say so and give the reasoning. We do not take vendor advertising, run affiliate links, or publish sponsored placements.

Vendor neutrality

Every comparison gives each vendor at least one situation where it is the right answer. Criticism is specific and sourced. We are not affiliated with SAP, Oracle, Microsoft, Infor, IFS, Epicor, or any other vendor, and nothing on this site should be read as an endorsement.

For the teams running the work

ERP Executive is written for executives. Its companion publication, ERP Strategy, covers the same decisions for the people running the selection and the program day to day: requirements, RFPs, demos, contracts, and delivery.
