Our ERP expert witness team specializes in analyzing the root causes of failed ERP implementations, which can include a combination of issues such as:

  • “Off-the-Shelf” Software Capability Misrepresentation and Claims – We analyze claims where software advertised as ready-to-use (“off-the-shelf”) does not perform as advertised or requires extensive and costly customization to meet the client’s needs.
  • Undefined Roles and Poorly Executed Responsibilities – We address situations in which project failure is caused by unclear roles or inadequate execution by internal project teams, VAR, ERP vendors, ERP consultants, or system integrators.
  • Errors in Customization & Integration – We identify errors and failures resulting from improper or poorly executed software customizations and integrations with other systems.

What is the difference between a software expert witness and a consultant?

A software consultant helps organizations select and implement software and manage digital transformation. In contrast, a software expert witness provides independent, unbiased opinions and testimony in legal proceedings.
It’s important to note that expert witnesses have specialized knowledge and experience in their field and can clearly explain complex technical issues to a judge or jury.
