Independent ERP consulting increases the success of ERP strategy selection and transformation by aligning systems with real business needs and reducing vendor bias. Dreher Consulting provides vendor-neutral ERP strategy, selection, implementation and optimisation for medium-sized businesses in Germany Austria and Switzerland.
ERP projects fail when requirements are unclear, vendor recommendations are biased, or decisions are not tied to business outcomes. Independent ERP consulting helps organisations identify, prioritise and govern ERP decisions so they reduce risk, control costs and deliver measurable results.
At Dreher Consulting we focus on clarifying your operational needs and process priorities before software is chosen or implemented. We translate business goals into structured ERP requirements, evaluate vendors without bias, and guide you through a transparent selection and implementation process. This ensures your ERP system supports automation digitalisation and regulatory compliance such as CSRD while enabling future growth.
With three decades of independent expertise, we guide your team through every phase with clarity, structure and practical, hands-on assistance.
Our specialists ensure that risks are reduced, decisions are well-informed and your project stays on track for long-term success.
Process optimisation is the focus, not a software product or ERP software house. We focus primarily on identifying and eliminating potential risks due to high or escalating costs during the course of the project.
Through our holistic approach, which looks at the process landscape and the processes that lead to value creation in customer management, we are able to recognise, highlight and realise opportunities to increase productivity and reduce costs.
Independent ERP consulting ensures that the chosen solutions are tailored to your specific business requirements without being influenced by vendor interests. This impartiality enables a clearer view of the bigger picture, ensuring that the ERP system is seamlessly integrated into your unique operational workflows.
As a rule, employees and teams know what they expect from an ERP project. This applies to functions as well as processes that should or must be improved. Again and again we hear from software houses or ERP implementations that an ERP project is a project of the customer, where the ERP software house only stands aside to implement the software.
Is this really the case, or can or should companies introducing ERP software expect the software house to also take responsibility for the project? It is precisely at this point that the question of professional advice and support arises for the first time, in order to inform oneself precisely about such questions, to obtain best practice and thus to reduce project risks.

From practice we know the situation of companies, project teams and project managers when it comes to initiating an ERP project.
Only rarely are there project teams in which experienced members have already been responsible for such an IT project. Usually, individual team members have been involved in sub-projects or sub-tasks before. However, this is usually not sufficient to ensure the success of an ERP project that affects the entire company.
The earlier in an ERP project expertise is brought in, the lower the risks that can have an exponentially negative impact as the project progresses. To provide you with exactly this support, we have developed ERP consulting as a service.
In a first phase, we use all the tools at our disposal to get an overview of the current state of information and situation. These are classic interviews and workshops as well as modern process mining software.
A decisive success factor is the design of a structured process model. Clear, comprehensible performance and delivery dates for requirements documentation, software qualification and key performance indicators (KPIs) are basic prerequisites for a successful ERP project.
