Do You Know Your Costs?
Cutting costs should be surgical - and well planned - don't cut off the keel to spite the mast.
Simplify and Optimize Your Enterprise
Know Your Costs: – Upfront – Procure, install, implement, train, upgrade
– Recurring – Support, programming, integration
– Hidden, intangible and emotional– Hosted vs. Premises – Adding more systems over time– Low-upfront and backend-loaded

Your Future Vision Statement
ERP isn’t a puzzle, it is more like an erector set - the difference is you must have the vision first! – Gerald Poe
Simplify and Optimize Your Enterprise
Vision Statement and Corporate Destiny - requires enterprise participation• Written in the present, not future tense. Describe what you feel, hear, think, say and do as if
you reached your vision now. • Summarized with a powerful phrase. The phrase forms the first paragraph of the vision
statement. The powerful phrase is repeated in whatever communication mediums you have to trigger memory of the longer statement. It is not a brand life-line.
• Describes an outcome, the best outcome we can achieve. It does not confuse vision with the business goals and objectives for a particular period of time. A vision statement, therefore, does not provide numeric measures of success.
• Uses unequivocal language. It does not use business speak or words like maximize or minimize.
• Evokes emotion. It is obviously and shamelessly passionate. However, it separates the hard aspect of vision in what we see, hear and do from the soft aspect of vision in what we think and feel.
• Build a picture, the same picture, in people's minds.
Building a vision statement with these components you run the risk of informing, inspiring and energizing your people.
