Hire an ERP implementation consultant in Greece and Cyprus

Someone on your side of the implementation who has done this before: the right system for the company, the integrator kept honest, and myDATA right the first time.

Most companies in Greece and Cyprus do not run SAP: they run a Greek ERP such as Entersoft, SoftOne or Pylon, or they are moving to Dynamics 365 Business Central, NetSuite or Odoo. An ERP implementation consultant works on the client's side of that move. The moments that bring one in:

  • The accounting package is outgrown and several vendors are quoting
  • myDATA and e-invoicing must work from the first invoice, not after go-live
  • The data migration has no owner and the opening balances will not reconcile
  • Go-live is planned for the month the accountant closes the year

The ERP implementation consultants on Hellenic Talent are elite professionals who have lived with these systems: finance directors and controllers who put an ERP into their own companies, senior consultants at implementation partners and transformation leads who ran selections for groups.

What does an ERP implementation consultant actually do?

  • Gather requirements across the business: finance, sales and the warehouse, before vendors quote
  • Run the selection on total cost, not the demo, and say when the current package is enough
  • Design the finance core: chart of accounts, cost centres, approvals and board reports
  • Get myDATA right in the design, with e-invoicing, withholding and VAT, not after go-live
  • Police the data migration, from cleansing master data to reconciling opening balances
  • Hold the integrator to scope and stay through the first closes after go-live

How to choose the right ERP implementation consultant

What to test in the first conversation, whoever you end up hiring.

  1. myDATA in the design

    Explains how your invoices will reach myDATA in the proposed design, before signature rather than after go-live.

  2. Ready to recommend less

    Has told a company its existing accounting package was enough, and can explain what tipped the decision.

  3. Owns the opening balances

    Plans the migration backwards from reconciled opening balances, and can say who signed them off last time.
