Suppose the CEO John Gilbert wants to know more about a single ERP Software package, and he asks Bob to prepare a more detailed proposal on implementing a single ERP software package. Bob then asks you to help him prepare the proposal which covers the following points:

1. A justification for choosing ERP as a solution to VTB (i.e., how it will address their problems and needs)

2. Criteria to choose an ERP vendor for VTB (with weighting and justifications)

3. A project budget, assuming SAP as the selected software, project team includes 30

consultants, 30 VTB employees, the system will have 60% of full-time employees as actual users, and these users need 3 days of training in groups of 20-30, and the whole project takes up to 24 months.

4. Implementation plan (i.e., vanilla, customization, or middle-of-the-roach approach) and deployment strategy

5. A suggested timeline (note: pay attention to the 24 months limit and other possible time constraints such as peak seasons)

Note: Vermont Teddy bear case.
