The client currently utilizes Sage, Procore, PTA, HH2, Eforms, and TimberScan across financial management, construction operations, project management, time tracking, and related processes.

The initial engagement will focus on assessment and selection, with the potential to continue into ERP implementation program leadership.

• 10+ years of experience in ERP consulting, enterprise applications, business transformation, or enterprise program leadership.
• Direct experience leading ERP software selection initiatives, including requirements gathering, RFP development, vendor evaluation, demonstrations, and selection recommendations.
• Experience leading complex ERP or enterprise application initiatives involving multiple systems and integrations.

• Ability to independently lead an engagement, establish credibility quickly, and communicate recommendations effectively.

• ERP selection or implementation experience specifically within the construction industry.
• Experience with Sage ERP/accounting solutions and Procore.
• Familiarity with construction job costing, project financials, commitments, subcontractor billing, and time tracking.
• Experience with construction ERP platforms and vendor ecosystems.
• Prior client‑side or vendor‑neutral ERP advisory experience.
• Experience transitioning from ERP selection into ERP implementation program leadership.
• Experience supporting small or mid‑sized organizations with limited internal IT or project management resources.

Key Responsibilities

ERP Assessment & Requirements

• Lead current‑state assessments and stakeholder discovery sessions across finance, accounting, construction operations, project management, and IT.
• Evaluate existing ERP applications, integrations, workflows, and business processes.
• Gather and prioritize functional, technical, and integration requirements.
• Identify process inefficiencies, system gaps, and opportunities for improvement.

ERP Software Selection & Vendor Evaluation

• Lead end‑to‑end ERP software selection, including RFP development, vendor evaluations, software demonstrations, and recommendation.
• Develop vendor evaluation criteria, scoring matrices, and demonstration scenarios.
• Evaluate ERP solutions for business fit, construction functionality, integrations, scalability, implementation complexity, and total cost of ownership.
• Facilitate stakeholder alignment and present objective recommendations to executive leadership.

• Develop a high‑level ERP implementation roadmap, including phases, milestones, dependencies, and resource requirements.
• Assess data migration, integration, testing, change management, and training needs.
• Recommend implementation governance, delivery structure, and resource allocation.
• Potentially transition into ERP implementation program management following software selection.

Ideal Candidate Profile

The strongest candidate is a senior ERP consultant or program leader who has personally led ERP software selection initiatives - not simply participated in ERP implementations. They understand how to assess business needs, structure an efficient vendor evaluation, facilitate executive decisions, and prepare an organization for implementation. Construction industry experience is highly desirable, but demonstrated ERP selection leadership, financial systems knowledge, and the ability to operate independently are essential.
