You have real breathing room
Your foundation is reasonably solid — ERP would help, but it's probably not the highest-leverage fix available to you right now. Start with the free readiness checklist below to find the cheaper wins first, and revisit ERP once you've closed those gaps.

You're in the ERP-ready zone
Several of your answers point to real, recurring costs — time, visibility, or mistakes — that a well-implemented ERP typically fixes within the first year. Worth building a proper business case before you talk to vendors.

You're overdue
This combination of answers — manual tracking, slow answers, invisible margins, mistakes that cost you clients — usually means you're losing more to inefficiency each year than an ERP would cost to implement. This is worth acting on, not just researching.
Common questions
Is this quiz actually free, and do I need to give my email? +
Yes, completely free, and no email is required to see your result. We’d rather you get an honest answer than gate it behind a form.
What if my score is right on the edge between two results? +
Treat it as a nudge, not a verdict — a score of 9 or 10 means you’re close to the tipping point either way. The ERP ROI Calculator will give you a much more precise, numbers-based answer for your specific factory.
Does this apply to non-manufacturing businesses? +
The questions are written for factories specifically (inventory, production, order tracking). If you run a retail or professional services business, our CRM guide and digital readiness content are a better starting point — see /resources for the full list.
