Enterprises has been using Tally as an
accounting package and MS-Excel for
recording other information. Introduction
of GST has triggered the discussion
regarding ERP implementation in its
recently concluded Board meeting. The MD
of the firm has heard about ERP but not
sure about ERP functionality. She has
also
heard that ERP solutions are too
expensive but nowadays open source ERP
software are also available, which can be
implemented at much lower cost. She has
invited you to explain what ERP is and
how it would be useful for her firm. What
advice would you give her? (10 Marks)
2. You are consultant to Jagat Facility
Management Services. This firm has over
100
clients and more than 2000 employees. You
have implemented the ERP software
for this company. Explain the methodology
that you have adopted for this firm.
Also share the lessons learned. (10

3. “It is simply ridiculous! The pricing
is too much!” This was the reaction,
which Ms
Phatima Bidarkar received when she shared
her consulting fees. “Why we should
pay so much for consulting services when
the ERP software comes for free?” A
question followed the initial reaction.
Ms Phatima Bidarkar started her career as
SAP functional consultant with a large
manufacturing enterprise, which had
implemented SAP ERP. While working on
fine-tuning the ERP implementation, she
also learnt how it is important to do
proper Business Process Reengineering
(BPR) to get maximum advantage of ERP
implementation. After working for five
years there, she started her consulting
company where she emphasized the need for
BPR before and even after ERP
implementation. She got her initial
business from the customers and suppliers
of
her former employer as her employer
served as a great reference for her work.
Since most of these firms were small
businesses, she started offering her
services
for implementing open source ERP software
called ERPNext.NMIMS Global Access

Internal Assignment Applicable for

Recently Ms Phatima Bidarkar started to
do cold calling for getting new
customers.
That is when she started getting
resistance for pricing of her consulting
services.
Since she used to offer BPR services in
addition to ERP functional consulting
services, she couldn’t reduce her prices.
But she was equally worried that she may
need to abandon the SME market segment if
she sticks to her pricing.
a. Should Ms Phatima Bidarkar reduce her
consulting fees? If yes then explain
how and if not then explain why not. (5
Marks)
b. Is BPR needed for SMEs before
implementing ERP? If yes then explain why
and if not then explain why not. (5
