What we have done
Did you know that

ERP Implementation is fundamentally an engineering endeavour

According to Gartner, ERP implementation failure rates exceed 75%, McKinsey estimates that more than 70% of all digital transformations fail.

As a qualified Professional Engineer who has undertaken numerous diagnostic investigations into failed and sub-optimal ERP implementations I have shown conclusively that an engineering approach to ERP implementation is vital.  I have developed seven critical factors that give rise to ERP implementation failure and seven critical factors for ERP implementation success — they are not what you might expect!

Diverse expertise guarantees a high value outcome

Through diverse career experience I bring a level of innovative structured thinking that has resulted in a deep understanding of what really matters concerning ERP implementation.

  • Formal professional engineering training -- how to prevent failure
  • Economics and business grounding -- what makes organizations successful
  • Strategy -- the essence of the organizaiton and how it thrives
  • Software coding -- fundamentals of how software and databases work
  • MIltary training at the regimental commander level -- the essence of rapid decision making
  • ERP troubleshooting -- deep understanding of what causes ERP failure and how to achieve success -- dozens of investigations
  • Diverse information classification and taxonomy experience leading to precision configuration
  • Diverse successful projects that have delivered high value strategic outcomes -- how to make ERP work as promised

My goal is to raise the bar of ERP implementation to achieve exceptional client value and enable all practitioners to reach this level.

Testimonials

  • “Following the initial project we undertook with Dr Robertson our company applied his principles on new projects resulting in a far greater percentage of successful projects and customers who got what they expected.
    “At all times I have found James to be reliable, hard-working and dedicated to ensuring that he achieves the results he promises. His engineering background supports the attention to detail he achieves in his projects and the logical approach to his work.
    “I would recommend James to an organisation in need of a person who is extremely skilled at rescuing a failed project or assisting a company in need of improvement in order to make decisions which will ensure its future success or extract new value from the organisation.”

    Sean Stuttaford
    CEO of ERP Implementer
  • “I am writing to recommend Dr James Robertson to any organisation that needs to rescue a project gone wrong, or indeed to manage any project with a high risk profile or need for rapid delivery. There are projects where an ordinary project manager will do. But if you have a challenging project on your hands, Dr Robertson is your man.”

    Paul Leigh
    CIO
  • “… after 18 months we still did not have a solution … they kept blaming us … after engaging Dr James within 48 hours we had got our head around what the issues were … totally inappropriate solution … we knew what the way forward … for the first time in 18 months there was clarity of vision regarding what had to be done”

    Anthony Lee
    CEO Transport Holdings
