The Ultimate Rootstock® Implementation Guide with Big Bang
Big Bang can help you implement, reimplement, or rescue Rootstock® ERP system for companies of any size, industry, and market.
Rootstock® has been at the forefront of providing cloud ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) manufacturing, outsourced manufacturing, distribution, and supply chain solutions in the age of personalization. When it comes to manufacturing or outsourced manufacturing and cloud, there are few experts. As one of the first to partner with Rootstock, we’re backed with years of experience handling successful implementation projects – and many rescue missions to pick up where others could not succeed. With this experience comes in-depth knowledge of all checkpoints and possible issues that could come up during an ERP implementation – simple or more complex.
It’s our job to guide you to get the best out of the solution immediately and in the long term.
Did you know that approximately half of our Rootstock customers come from a failed implementation? They come to us because they know we have a thorough and global understanding of the Rootstock implementation process, and how to best integrate it and its Salesforce Platform™ into the global IT infrastructure.
Big Bang’s team of expert consultants offer unique end-to-end implementation services that are agile to your business needs. From our proprietary GAB’s Pyramid™ framework to our rescue services, Big Bang makes it a point to understand your business processes and the project’s reality altogether.

Rootstock® implementation process
After presenting and agreeing on the implementation plan, our team will get to work! Expect to receive regular communication and updates throughout the implementation process so that the final system meets all business requirements. Your team’s stakeholders will participate, minimally, in weekly syncs to ensure proper knowledge transfer and that things progress as they should.
Our Salesforce Platform expertise comes in handy

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does an implementation take?
How much does an implementation cost?
What are my implementation options?
A Rootstock implementation can take anywhere from 4 weeks to a couple of months to half a year, depending on the project’s scale. Accurate timelines are scoped out at the beginning of the project so that the business can accommodate, adapt, or expect accordingly. Our goal is to implement Rootstock as quickly as possible while managing the potential risks while changing systems and business processes. When a consulting firm takes too long to implement, the benefits are hard to achieve since the ROI (including time invested by your team) needs to be recouped.
There is the base cost that depends on the size of the project. And adding on extra modules and third-party apps and connectors above the base will come at an additional cost. But often, this doesn’t have to come all at once. We can work with you to determine the priority level for all features and build a customized plan, including pricing, based on your IT strategy and growth goals.
Perhaps you have only a very basic accounting system that does only fundamental transactions like bills, invoices, and financial statements, and you require a new ERP solution implementation. Or perhaps through recent years of growth, your ERP system has amounted to so many customizations and has become too robust and cumbersome to function optimally, and you require a rescue mission. As your implementation partner, we assess the best option that is unique to your needs, an ERP system that links your organization’s transactions from start to end.
