How TRC Solutions deliver Successful Deployments
As a business looking to unify and optimize your processes, implementing an ERP system that integrates everything from point-of-sale (POS) to accounting is a critical step. But selecting the right ERP software is only half the battle. You also need to ensure the system is implemented efficiently, stays within budget, and that your team is fully equipped to use it to drive success from Day 1. That’s where TRC Solutions and our proven methodology come into play.
At TRC Solutions, we combine best-practice Support and Training with the power of SAP Software to ensure that your business is as efficient as possible from the moment your new ERP system goes live. Leveraging SAP’s Activate Methodology, we guarantee a smooth implementation process that mitigates risk, fosters innovation, and drives rapid, predictable deployments. Here’s how we do it and why choosing TRC Solutions can transform your business.
The Key to a Successful ERP Implementation
When businesses like yours decide to implement an ERP system, two crucial elements determine the success of the deployment:
- Efficient Implementation Delivered Within Budget

We prioritize delivering a solution that not only meets your specific business needs but also does so within your budget and timeline.

Empowering Your Team to Drive Success with SAP Software
Once your ERP system is live, the real challenge begins: ensuring your team knows how to leverage the new software to maximize efficiency and productivity. At TRC Solutions, we provide comprehensive training and support to ensure that your team is confident in using the new system right from the start.
We recognize that for your business to truly benefit from a new ERP system, your employees need to:
- Understand the system’s capabilities and how they relate to their day-to-day tasks.
- Feel confident using the system to drive improvements in efficiency, decision-making, and overall business performance.
- Know how to troubleshoot common issues and optimize the system to meet evolving business needs.
Our tailored training programs ensure that your team is ready to hit the ground running as soon as the system goes live. We offer:
- Role-based training that focuses on the specific needs and responsibilities of each team member.
- Comprehensive documentation and guides, so your staff always has access to the information they need.
- Ongoing support to handle any questions or issues that arise after the system is live.
What is the SAP Activate Methodology?
The SAP Activate Methodology is a proven, flexible, and scalable framework used for SAP ERP implementations. It is designed to accelerate deployment while providing a predictable path to success. Whatever your Industry, Requirements or Goals the Activate Methodology is adaptable to meet your unique needs.
Activate provides a step-by-step approach to project management that is built around the following key phases:
- Discover Phase: In this phase, we help you define your business goals, gather requirements, and determine which SAP solution will best fit your needs. We assess your current systems and processes to align your ERP implementation with your business strategy.
- Prepare Phase: We use a combination of workshops and analysis sessions to plan the deployment. This includes defining project timelines, scoping the work required, identifying key stakeholders, and mapping out your business processes in alignment with the new system.
- Explore Phase: During the explore phase, we conduct a fit-to-standard analysis, reviewing SAP’s best-practice processes and determining how they align with your business. This step helps us minimize customization, speeding up deployment and reducing costs.
- Realize Phase: Here, we configure your SAP system according to the plan set out in the previous phases. We also conduct user acceptance testing (UAT) to ensure everything is working as intended. This phase ensures that the system is ready to meet your specific operational needs.
- Deploy Phase: During the deployment phase, your new ERP system is fully implemented and goes live. We ensure a smooth transition with minimal disruption to your day-to-day business operations. Our team is on hand for real-time support and troubleshooting during this critical stage.
- Run Phase: Even after the system is live, our work doesn’t end. We continue to provide post-go-live support, ensuring that any issues are addressed quickly and efficiently. We also offer ongoing optimization services to ensure that your system evolves with your business over time.
