In Cloud ERP: The Great Enabler of Growth, Mint Jutras examined how Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solutions delivered as software as a service (SaaS) help companies fuel and simplify growth by addressing people challenges and mitigating risk, while maintaining governance and control. Cloud solutions enable you to fail (or succeed) faster, allowing you to focus on the next and best opportunity for growth. But with the ever-increasing pace of change, sometimes growth leaves you too diversified, or with less focus and efficiency than desired. While mergers and acquisitions are quite common today, so are divestitures. These transactions have the potential of being painful and messy. The goal is to get through them as quickly and painlessly as possible. Can cloud ERP play a significant role in smoothing these transitions?
