Are you a finance, supply chain, or IT leader wrestling with an ERP that's expensive to run and too rigid to change?
If your organisation is exploring how AI can actually move the needle beyond pilots and proofs of concept, then join us on 22 September to explore the architecture behind a fluid, AI-orchestrated operating model – decoupled data, microservices, and agentic AI – illustrated through a concrete Order-to-Cash use case and real client outcomes. You'll leave with a practical path to get started.
Why this matters to you
If you're responsible for your organisation's ERP landscape, you already know the uncomfortable truth: the model isn't keeping pace. Multi-country ERP programmes now take 4–6 years and cost hundreds of millions, yet only a fraction of them deliver half their promised benefits within two years of go-live. Meanwhile, your teams are still stuck in manual work the system was supposed to eliminate, chasing exceptions in order validation, reconciling invoices by hand, prioritising collections on gut feel instead of data. Every new integration adds to a customisation debt that makes the next change even slower and more expensive. And the organisations that have started decoupling from this model are already pulling ahead, widening a gap that gets harder to close the longer you wait.
What you'll walk away with
In this session, we'll show you the architecture that's replacing the monolith – and, more importantly, how to get there without a disruptive, multi-year "big-bang" programme. You'll see the three technological shifts (decoupled data, microservices, agentic AI) translated into a concrete four-layer operating model and watch it applied step by step to a real Order-to-Cash process, where AI agents take over credit scoring, order routing, invoice matching, reconciliation, and dunning. We'll back it with reference cases from Implement engagements and the economics behind the shift, so you leave not just inspired, but with a credible, low-risk starting point you can bring back to your own organisation on Monday morning.
