(MENAFN- EIN Presswire) EINPresswire/ -- In an age where digital transformation shapes competitive advantage, organizations are increasingly depending on ERP transformations to improve efficiency and streamline operations. But far too often, transformations are expensive detours instead of value journeys, due simply to poor planning and lack of forecasting impact. Business Process Xperts (BPX) has changed the tide with a formalized Business Impact Analysis (BIA) process that provides organizations with the insight and impact to not only reduce cost, but also proactively mitigate risk and align towards strategy outcomes.

BPX recently finished an ERP transformation project for a global retail client, where through the use of a robust business impact assessment right at the top, the organization reduced their projected transformation cost by 18%. Through anticipating risks, proactive planning, process mapping, and business analysis and process management, the team defined redundancies, operational bottlenecks, and risk-laden environments, ensuring a smoother and less expensive transition.

"The key to successful implementation of a new ERP system comes from the careful consideration of how the change will impact every node of your business, not from the software," says Nikhil Agarwal, Founder of BPX. "When we did a bia business impact analysis we could not only map out processes but determine the cost implications of every transformation decision. That changes the game for our client."

A BIA and risk assessment allows organizations to shift their attention away from the technical parts of ERP software, and put it back on people readiness, organizational dependencies, and expected sustainability. The BIA framework from BPX includes elements of business impact analysis, including identifying critical business functions, estimating potential financial and operations losses of downtime, and making recommendations for mitigations - a structured approach that's paramount in minimizing the disruption of transformations.

What makes BPX's approach unique is the depth of business analysis in conjunction with industry experience. Each BIA that is completed, is tailored to the organization (size, complexity, industry norms).

“BIA business impact analysis is not just a compliance checkbox; It is an early warning tracking system," said Rupal Agarwal, Co-founder at BPX. "By understanding every system change and the downstream impacts of that change, the organization is in a position to take preventative action, minimize downtime, and best of all, save money. This is something we strive to help our clients do."

As more and more organizations prepare for ERP upgrades or migrations, BPX strongly encourages an upfront investment in a business impact analysis. BPX likens this to building a house without a blueprint; it may stand for a time, but not without risk. Therefore, BIA is essential.
