Issues and Challenges Faced During the Implementation of Enterprise Resource Planning of MSMEs in India

Abstract

This paper aims to present the outcomes of a study that analyzed ERP deployment success factors in Indian Micro, Small, and Medium-Scale firms (MSMEs) based on a comprehensive compilation of the literature. The article aims to scientifically evaluate the most issues and challenges in the ERP deployment process as perceived by Indian MSMEs. This research aims to serve as a valuable guideline for MSMEs to ensure a successful conclusion of the implementation process. The research aims to investigate the factors influencing the installation of ERP systems at various stages of MSMEs. Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) is used to identify the fewest components that account for the most variance in data. Indian companies, particularly Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), struggle to determine the appropriate adoption of these technologies. This paper discusses the concerns and obstacles faced by Indian MSMEs based on case studies of ERP implementation in Indian MSMEs and in-depth interviews with ERP suppliers.
