1. Define Clear Business Objectives

Before beginning the implementation, identify what your organization wants to achieve. Are you aiming to streamline production processes? Improve inventory visibility? Reduce order processing time? Defining these goals helps align the ERP implementation with your broader business strategy and keeps the project on track.

3. Engage Stakeholders Early

Successful Infor SyteLine implementation depends on active involvement from all key departments. Engage stakeholders from manufacturing, operations, finance, IT, and even customer service right from the planning stage. Their input is essential for accurately mapping existing workflows, identifying process gaps, and defining practical system requirements. Early engagement also promotes a sense of ownership, reduces resistance to change, and increases the likelihood of user adoption once the system goes live. Collaboration across functions ensures the ERP solution supports the entire organization—not just a single department.

4. Plan for Data Migration Early

Clean, accurate data is the foundation of a successful ERP system. Begin data mapping and cleansing during the early stages. Pay special attention to legacy data, and work with your implementation team to build robust data migration strategies that minimize downtime and error.

5. Prioritize User Training

No ERP implementation is complete without comprehensive user training. Infor SyteLine’s functionality is powerful, but users need hands-on experience to make the most of it. Provide role-specific training to end-users and super-users to encourage adoption and reduce resistance to change.

6. Start with Core Modules, Then Expand

Instead of a “big bang” rollout, consider a phased implementation. Start with essential modules such as Inventory Management, Production, and Financials. Once stabilized, roll out advanced features like Quality Management, APS (Advanced Planning & Scheduling), or CRM. This approach minimizes disruption and allows time for process optimization.

7. Customize Judiciously

Infor SyteLine is highly configurable, but excessive customization can lead to maintenance challenges and upgrade issues. Focus on configuring the system to meet your needs and limit custom development to truly business-critical functions. Fidel Technologies helps clients strike the right balance between flexibility and stability.
