In this webinar, Horizon 7 explores how organisations can **procure ERP solution differently** using an agile, collaborative sourcing approach that delivers faster decisions, stronger commercial outcomes and minimises delivery risk. We will examine how emerging trends toward **modular, multi‑supplier ERP architectures** are fundamentally changing how platforms and implementation partners should be selected and why traditional sourcing methods are no longer fit for purpose. Key take aways and learnings - **Why traditional ERP RFPs increase risk** and how they fall short in a modern, SaaS-driven, multi-supplier environment - **How to accelerate ERP procurement cycles** while improving commercial and contractual outcomes using an agile sourcing approach  - **How to navigate the shift to modular ERP architectures** (best-of-breed vs all-in-one) and its impact on decision-making - **A robust practical framework for selecting the right platform(s) and delivery partner** to ensure successful delivery in complex, integrated ecosystems # Meet the Panel ![Melanie SQ](https://info.horizonseven.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/Melanie%20SQ.jpg?width=250&height=250&name=Melanie%20SQ.jpg "Melanie SQ") ![Tasch sq](https://info.horizonseven.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/Tasch%20sq.jpeg?width=250&height=250&name=Tasch%20sq.jpeg "Tasch sq") ![Elliot sq](https://info.horizonseven.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/Elliot%20sq.jpeg?width=250&height=250&name=Elliot%20sq.jpeg "Elliot sq") ### Melanie Humphries **CEO** With a successful track record spanning technology, legal, procurement, and sales leadership, Melanie brings a rare, end-to-end perspective on what truly drives successful tech transformation.
