More often than not, organizations fail to sustain or upgrade their enterprise solutions to take advantage of new functionality, processes or toolsets provided by the vendor. Instead they perceive their current configuration and platform as being good enough or believe that “if it isn’t broke, it doesn’t need fixing”. These organizations will leverage makeshift solutions such as spreadsheets, database extracts and other “cuff” systems to recreate capabilities they may already have but fail to recognize. Alternatively, some organizations find that when their existing enterprise solution does not fully meet their current needs, the answer is to start the process over again and implement a new system. The result in either case can be enterprise solutions that exist in multiple database instances, are behind in regulatory compliance, or have been surpassed in technical flexibility and maturity. In short, the very systems invested in to provide strategic value and financial savings become nothing more than an operational roadblock and cost burden to the organization.
