The typical misconception many businesses believe is that they can survive and thrive with just a basic accounting solution. It keeps many organizations in the services industry from implementing a complete ERP solution. In fact, some of them spend much of their time pointing out the deficiencies of processes and technology to their clients while they ignore their own.
In a study conducted by Mint Jutras, 70% of survey participants in service industries claim to be either close to being “digitally prepared” or already there. While 55% – 74% of companies still rely on spreadsheets or paper and manual efforts in planning and managing activities crucial to service businesses.
Resource planning for the service industries comes with different challenges – driving expansion with profitability, managing intense competition, and macro challenges specific to the people and project-centric services sector. While professional services move up the value chain, companies need to predict and analyze requirements in real-time.
ERP for Service Industries Cut Costs and Build Revenue
To increase cost optimization and new revenue generation, your professional services company will need to take the next step to become a truly global company and retain a local focus. Your Service Industry ERP software needs to be specific to the needs of the service industry at large and at the same time differentiate itself with unique value-added propositions that help in successful retention of customers and quicker turn-around time in servicing their needs.
Service Industry ERP offers ready-to-go capabilities for a range of service organizations, including consultancies, accountants, law firms, architecture practices, engineering and construction businesses, real estate companies, etc. In an industry with as many demands as this, Oracle NetSuite’s solutions for service providers can help your company save time and money while making better informed, faster decisions.
