Discover the Comparative Study and Proof of Concept Approach
by TVH Consulting
Choosing an ERP or BI solution based on “questionnaires/specifications” with a too binary (yes/no) approach and uncertain, conflict-prone answers may cause you to overlook the true challenges and objectives of your project. Quantitative aspects, like functional coverage percentages, tend to overshadow qualitative ones: consistency and adaptability of major covered functions, solution agility, sources of differentiation, etc.
This overly theoretical approach is no longer in tune with the rapid pace of technological innovations and the need to deploy ERP and BI projects more quickly. To help you make the right choices, we can conduct a comparative study and/or a Proof of Concept (POC).
Make the right choices for your information system
thanks to our 4 to 5-step approach
At TVH Consulting, our independence and deployment experience with Microsoft and SAP solutions within SMEs, medium-sized businesses, and large groups allow us today to support ERP evolution projects upstream by considering all the decisive criteria.
For this, we offer a four to five-step approach that enables us to create a comparative study of the two solutions and possibly a Proof of Concept (POC) to reduce the risks associated with the selection and implementation of the ERP based on differentiating factual elements.
This way, you are guaranteed to select the “best” ERP solution based on your context and according to four fundamental principles:
- Consider today’s and tomorrow’s business needs
- Place the project team at the heart of the decision
- Assess the flexibility level of your company
- Have a thorough understanding of the risk areas

Workshops are organized with business units over a short period to work on key needs, identify possible areas for improvement, and make success assumptions, with deliverables provided progressively: deployment scenario, impact analysis, key processes, ROI/TCO, etc.
This study also ensures that all conditions for success are in place. Indeed, success may also mean realizing that the company is not ready to launch an ERP project and that it is preferable to initiate other projects beforehand such as formalizing business processes or defining a new project organization, for example…
The complete project plan you receive at the end of the study thus allows you to secure the implementation of the chosen solution in your context and to identify the quantitative and qualitative gains to measure to validate the success of the project.
The added value of this approach is therefore to make all of your challenges more concrete and to project you onto the right evolutionary path for your system in a collaborative way. You involve the business teams in choosing the best solution while calibrating the budget as accurately as possible.
