Enterprise Application Services

OnBridge staff has worked on multiple enterprise level projects within the government sector. Our success in these projects is attributed to strong government domain knowledge, excellent people skills and a deep understanding of ERP systems.  Our knowledge and experience in ERP Implementations combined with our strengths in business process transformation ensures that our clients have a team with a proven ability to deliver on large ERP projects. This is because our staff has a successful track record in ERP implementation for large, complex public sector clients.

We also have significant credentials in implementing end-to-end as well as defining business processes that best take advantage of these applications in government environments. In addition, we have provided excellent production support for systems after they are rolled in production including transitioning the support to client staff through effective, speedy and managed knowledge transfer.

ERP Services

For over 14 years we have established a proven track record of successfully implementing large scale ERP systems. Our primary objective in the ERP implementation services is to bring efficiencies to the client’s business processes which most times means being able to focus on a problem, determine the best solution, and execute. Nothing equates to ”experience” in the implementation of large scale ERP systems.

Putting together a procure-to-pay business process for example, requires extensive knowledge of requisition processing, bid solicitation processes, contract management, workflow/document approval processes, document management (attachments), goods and services receipt/return, invoice processes, vendor data structure, three/two-way matching, credit memos, Payment Disbursement processes, EFT, Discounts etc. This is where the adage “been there, done that” becomes critical when, for example, one is explaining to end-users how a specific accounting event would be handled in the transformed business process.

End to End Processes

Over the years, our consultants have gained valuable experience in several ERP end to end business processes including the following:

• Plan to Budget (P2B)

• Procure to Pay (P2P)

• Acquire to Retire (A2R)

• Record to Report (R2R)

• Plan-to-Stock to Inventory Management

• Hire to Retire (H2R)
