The hidden costs of delaying your ERP transformation
Webinar recording | Watch now
In December 2024, we ran a webinar session on ERP transformation – an essential discussion for organisations seeking to boost efficiency, enhance accuracy and make finance operations more relevant to business goals.
The pace of technology is fast and often, and many organisations find comfort in holding on to older systems that have served them well over the years – like legacy ERP systems.
Yet, one of the most overlooked costs of relying on legacy ERP systems is how it ties up your most valuable resource: TIME.
Specifically, outdated systems significantly slow down your month-end financial close processes, forcing highly skilled finance teams to spend time on manual reconciliations.
This leaves less room for data-driven insights, which are critical in today’s competitive business environment.
Watch it back
Available on demand, watch at your leisure as we discuss the hidden costs of sticking with outdated ERP systems—costs that quietly drain your time, resources and hinder growth. Learn how modern ERP solutions like Oracle Cloud ERP can streamline operations, optimise financial processes and give you a competitive edge.
- Hear from experts at Oracle and NRI as they unpack the insights you need to get started or progress ERP initiatives and share the actionable strategies you can adopt to overcome the unavoidable hurdles in front of you.
- You’ll also hear from Albert Iglesias, Chief Revenue Officer at IDP Education, who shared valuable insights from his extensive career on identifying and tackling the hidden costs that accumulate when organisations delay this essential modernisation.
