ERP systems need continuous improvements to stay relevant in a changing business environment. Organizations that build in continuous improvement run regular assessments of their systems to seek inefficiencies and improvements. User feedback is invaluable in this regard in identifying usability problems and non-functional requirements. Continuous training supports users in keeping their skills up-to-date in the operation of the system, then apply those skills to troubleshoot and make improvements. This training, along with monitoring system performance and making data-driven iterative improvements to boost productivity and operational efficiency, allow business organizations to align ERP capability with new technology and changes in business need, thereby future-proofing their systems. In doing so, some operational bottlenecks are dropped and sustainable competitive advantage maintained. Proactively optimizing the ERP overtime ensures enduring value and adaptability in a fast-changing digital environment.
