Q Discuss For this assignment, conduct research on the topic of ERP systems. If you were the CIO of a large enterprise and the implementation of an ERP system was going badly, where would you begin to try to determine what was causing the difficulties that are being encountered in the project? For example, would you bring in an outside consultant or rely on in-house talent to track down the causes that resulted in the less-than-optimal outcomes? Why would you choose one resource over the other?

I think it is hard to determine how to solve a difficulty arises during a project. As it has been mentioned in the question, the two basic solutions of this case is to either asks an outside consultant for the help or to consult with the in-house team to solve the problem. Before making any decision, it is better to analyze the pros and cons involved in each of the cases. Since nothing is given about the expertise of the in-house talents it can be assumed that they have the moderate knowledge on the subject.
