Our ERP process is built for Australian councils that need audit-defensible decisions and controlled risk. We use a structured, phased approach so CEOs, executives and councillors can see exactly what’s happening at each step.
Phase 1 — Discovery & Current-State Review
We map your current systems, risks and constraints so you and your executive team have a clear, shared view before any ERP decisions are made.
Phase 2 — Scope Definition
We define what your new ERP must do, what’s out of scope, and what “minimum viable” looks like, so you avoid scope creep and budget blowouts.
Phase 3 — ERP Market Scan
We provide an independent view of ERP options suitable for councils like yours, so you don’t rely on vendor marketing or informal advice.
Phase 4 — RFT Preparation
We help you prepare a clear, structured, vendor-ready RFT that is easy to evaluate and stands up to audit and probity review.
Phase 5 — Evaluation Support
We support your evaluation team with criteria, scoring and documentation so your final recommendation is transparent, consistent and defensible.
ERP Advisory & Readiness
A successful ERP journey starts with clarity. IBSA provides an independent assessment of your current systems, processes, and organisational readiness. We identify risks, constraints, and improvement opportunities before engaging vendors.
