Case Study
An international fashion house, London-based but with over a hundred stores globally, had attempted to devise their own Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system in-house but been prohibited by the complexity of this task. Monrah’s expertise was therefore sought to orchestrate this important operation and support the client’s swift expansion into the Asian markets.
Impact and Advantages
As a direct result of Monrah’s services, the fashion house has become a rapidly-growing business in the emerging Eastern markets, enabled by the customised functionalities of their EPOS systems together with their ERP system. It has now opened several stores in the region and is on course to increase this number in the near future, as well as to roll out online services.

PROJECT PLANNING
ERP strategy improvement
Negotiating a very short lead-in time to Asian market entry, Monrah assisted the company in its endeavour to build a new Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system. Drawing on our experience, we cultivated a new strategy for the fashion house, strengthening their requirement gathering, stakeholder management and project planning. As a niche consultancy firm grounded in both the European and Asian markets we were able to formulate a structured approach to resolving our client’s problems.
Firstly, we gathered the optimal requirements for their ERP system by consulting with stakeholders and come up with the most appropriate solution. As a multi-lingual company, we were able to communicate with stakeholders both in East Asia and at the company’s headquarters in Europe, thus ensuring all parties were able to be involved in our processes.
Real-time AGILE software development methodology
Additionally, we initiated the establishment of AGILE Software development methodology, enabling stakeholders to see the software development process in real time. In using an approach open to such responsive insight, we could effectively re-calibrate the focus of the requirements as per stakeholder request.
