Estimating ERP Benefits/ Value for Business Case. We are building a business case to replace a 10+ year old ERP that provides order to invoice functionality. There is no workflow, exception management, or modern features we have seen in new solutions. Similar to others I've talked with, our ERP was heavily customized to meet our need when we were 20MM and now we are 160MM. I know that we need the business functions to define what they can do better with a new ERP to build a unique business case, but they need some help with templates or examples of what others have seen to see what "good" looks like. I looked within GG for some standard benchmarks, but not exist. Anyone seen some good examples we could share with our financial, production/operations and sales teams for ideation?
We are currently working with SAP on S/4HANA RISE agreement. SAP has included a product called "SAP Preferred Success for S/4HANA" in the proposed bill-of-material. Does anyone have any experience with this? The cost is not insignificant, so I would like to understand whether it is value for money from somebody else than SAP.

When do you know that it’s time to build or acquire an ERP?
Has anyone had an experience of implementing a solution to cover all (or most of) the following processes and can recommend any solutions/vendors? We are a manufacturer of Buses and are looking to replace our existing Warranty management solution for our vehicles once they are in service with our customers. This involves call collection and managing claims, field service engineer's workload management, campaigns mgmt, supplier recovery, parts return, inventory mgmt, to name a few processes.
My company is a mix of manufacturing, Retail, Social Selling, and Wholesale. We are selecting SAP S/4 Hana Industry model template and we are not sure if we should select a CPG model or retail model. Any company with this mixed archetype that could share the experience of selection, criteria and faced challenges?
