Monhabie Advisors LLC, a renowned independent Project Management consulting firm, has recently released a new book that offers valuable guidance on successfully navigating complex ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) implementations. Titled “Project Manager’s Guide to Successfully Implementing ERP Systems,” the book draws on the extensive, hands-on experience of Founder and President Christian McClellan. With over 20 years of experience across industries such as IT, entertainment, manufacturing, higher education, and retail, McClellan provides actionable insights to help project managers, IT professionals, and business leaders implement ERP systems effectively.
Christian McClellan, a respected independent ERP Project Manager, founded Monhabie Advisors with the mission to support large multinational corporations in executing major ERP transformations. McClellan and his team specialize in helping organizations manage complex, high-stakes projects across the entire project lifecycle. This includes vendor selection, requirements assessment, business process modeling, customizations, testing, and project closure—all following strict best practices, including PMI (Project Management Professional) and Microsoft SureStep methodologies.
In his newly released book, McClellan provides practical, real-world advice that bridges the gap between theoretical knowledge and ERP system execution. His goal is to offer professionals the tools to overcome the challenges that often accompany large-scale ERP projects. According to McClellan, “A large ERP transformation project has thousands of moving parts, and up to 66% of major ERP implementations face significant obstacles, with around half of those projects failing. This book provides the practical tools to ensure your ERP project stays on track, on time, and on budget.”
Monhabie Advisors has built a strong reputation for excellence by focusing on three key principles: transparency, independence, and adherence to proven methodologies. These principles are essential in helping clients address the complexities of ERP system deployments. The company is committed to ensuring that all stakeholders are fully informed at every stage of the project, fostering complete transparency throughout the process. This helps organizations avoid common pitfalls and keep their projects moving forward smoothly. Moreover, Monhabie Advisors remains neutral when advising on software packages and vendors, providing clients with unbiased, expert recommendations based solely on their unique needs.
The new book serves as an invaluable resource for project managers looking to successfully implement ERP systems. Through clear, actionable strategies, McClellan helps readers tackle the challenges that arise during ERP implementations, ultimately helping organizations achieve their goals while maximizing ROI. Whether managing corporate acquisitions, distributed applications, or complex supply chain systems, the book equips readers with the tools they need to lead their teams to success.
“ERP implementations are often the defining project for many organizations, and their success can have a profound impact on the business’s future,” said McClellan. “By following a structured methodology and maintaining transparency throughout the process, companies can reduce the risks and improve their chances of a successful transformation.”
McClellan’s book, which distills decades of experience in ERP system implementations, provides real-world solutions that professionals can apply directly to their own projects. The book also draws from McClellan’s vast expertise in industries such as finance, accounting, supply chain, sales processes, and distribution systems, offering both strategic and tactical advice for readers.
