June Newsletter: Three Signs an ERP System Is Worth Your Trust

Trust in an ERP system comes down to three checks: an independent report, a decision made properly before signing, and proof from a business already running it, the same three checks that separate a smooth rollout from a stalled one.

What makes Priority ERP built for real manufacturing pressure?

Priority ERP handles multi-level bills of materials, barcode-based shop floor reporting that tracks material and labour as it happens and built in quality checks that catch a problem before it reaches a customer.

That is the same depth we build into every Priority rollout we run for manufacturers across Ireland.

The 2026 Top 10 Manufacturing ERP Systems Report includes Priority ERP for exactly that depth.

A shop floor that reports what is happening as it happens is the difference between catching a problem and shipping it.

What is the most common mistake businesses make when choosing an ERP system?

Poorly defined scope, staff left out of the process, a system sized for someone else’s business, and support treated as an afterthought are why most ERP projects fail. Irish businesses that get this right report smoother launches and far fewer costly surprises in year two.

We walk through scope, sizing, and support with every business before anyone signs a contract, the same structured approach we use for every implementation across Ireland.

A scope check on paper costs a fraction of a rebuild after go live.

How did Shannonside Galvanising replace three ERP systems with one?

Shannonside Galvanising ran three disconnected systems before switching to myERP, powered by Herbst. Michael O’Connor, Sales Executive, says reports that used to take hours now take minutes, and stock and job tracking finally line up.

We assessed the operation, integrated it with existing systems like their weighbridge, and took the whole system live overnight, the same approach we bring to every Herbst and Priority implementation in Ireland.

“Hours of manual data collation are gone.” — Michael O’Connor, Sales Executive, Shannonside Galvanising

Trust like that comes from real capability, a decision made properly, and proof from a business already running the system. If you want to talk through how Priority or Herbst would work for you, get in touch.

Is Priority ERP good for manufacturing businesses?

Priority ERP handles multi-level bills of materials, barcode-based shop floor reporting, and built in quality checks, the same capabilities the 2026 Top 10 Manufacturing ERP Systems Report highlights.

Define scope clearly, involve the staff who will use the system daily, pick a system sized for your business, and confirm support before signing anything. Skipping any one of these is the reason ERP projects run over budget or stall after go live.

Yes. A single ERP platform brings stock, job tracking, and reporting together in one place, instead of running separate systems that ask for the same information twice. Manufacturers that consolidate this way spend less time on double entry and work from one reliable set of numbers across the business.
