What is ERP Project Management?

Enterprise resource planning (ERP) project management is the strategic planning, execution, and oversight of ERP-related projects. It’s not just about deploying software. it’s about aligning technology with business goals. At EstesGroup, we coordinate every aspect of an ERP deployment, from resource planning and budget control to system integration and change management. The EstesGroup way of handling your ERP project brings your team a proven methodology that guarantees projects are completed on time, within budget, and fully aligned with your business objectives.

Strategic Project Planning

At EstesGroup, we believe that the foundation of every successful ERP implementation is a well-structured project plan. Our expert project managers work closely with your team to establish clear goals, precise timelines, and effective resource allocation. This strategic approach ensures that every phase of your ERP deployment is meticulously organized, reducing risks and setting realistic expectations for project milestones.

Cost Control and Risk Mitigation

Staying on budget and minimizing risk are core principles of EstesGroup’s project management approach. We track costs using industry-standard metrics like BCWS (Budgeted Cost of Work Scheduled), BCWP (Budgeted Cost of Work Performed), and EAC (Estimated Cost at Completion). This precision allows us to predict costs, prevent overruns, and guarantee financial accountability throughout the project lifecycle.

Seamless System Integration and Change Management

ERP projects are more than software installations—they are business transformations. We manage the complexities of integrating your ERP with third-party systems, supply chains, and legacy platforms. Our Organizational Change Management (OCM) strategies also prepare your team for new processes and cultural shifts, ensuring smooth transitions and widespread adoption.

Damage Control and Contingency Planning

ERP implementations often face unexpected challenges—supply chain disruptions, data migration issues, or integration conflicts. At EstesGroup, we proactively identify risks and implement contingency plans to keep your project on track. Our risk assessment process includes detailed analysis and mitigation strategies, ensuring your ERP deployment remains resilient and uninterrupted, no matter what obstacles arise.

Heide Warren, Engineer, TuscoMFG

We enlisted EstesGroup to help us transition from Epicor Classic to Kinetic. This project involved uplifting 20 customizations, 32 dashboards, and 6 BAQ reports to Kinetic. Estes has been attentive to our needs, maintaining excellent communication throughout the process. The team includes not only developers but also a dedicated principal consultant and project manager. They efficiently track and manage the project using a shared MS Teams channel and spreadsheet. This setup has been instrumental in keeping us on task, ensuring a unified direction, and facilitating discussions. Despite a tight budget, Estes has adhered to our financial constraints while allowing for project adjustments as needed.

Bryan Provo, President, Alliance Machine, Inc

Great support! They have a wonderful team. EstesGroup was the missing link for us after 10 plus years of Epicor. They are hosting our server and providing consulting for our full use of the system. Thanks EstesGroup!

Gina Woodman, Owner, Gina Woodman Bookkeeping

Soooo happy with EstesGroup. I’ve had a few technical issues over the past few months and the support I’ve received has been nothing but perfect! Response time has ranged from soon to immediate, which is often critical in any business. The tech support staff I’ve worked with have all been terrific – knowledgeable, professional, and actually fun to work. One of your techs found and restored three of my “lost” Quickbooks company and backup client files that even Intuit couldn’t find. This saved me not only time but a critical client relationship. First class service… I recommend your company whenever I can.

Carla Wing, VP of Operations, American Flexible Products, Inc.

I am extremely pleased with the Epicor consulting services provided by Estes Group. Their expertise in Epicor in the areas of manufacturing, financial, and technical was invaluable to our team and helped us achieve our goal of going live in 7 months from start to finish.
