Cloud ERP That Supports The Nation’s Agricultural Sector

Agriculture, food and related industries contribute more than $1 trillion to U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) annually, with America’s farms contributing $132.8 billion to this sum or roughly 1% of the nation’s GDP.

Within this sector, grain milling represents a growing industry that’s ripe for a technological overhaul. Most grain in the U.S. is used as animal feed, while slightly less is converted into ethanol.

Catering to the Agricultural Community

Focusing solely on NetSuite solutions, The Vested Group has worked with a number of grain milling operations and related agricultural entities in developing our inGRAINED solution. This expertise allows The Vested Group to address the unique set of challenges companies in this market segment face.

The Vested Group is equally well-equipped to handle the demands and complexities that much larger grain related companies face and can also facilitate a successful NetSuite implementation for larger organizations.

 

The Vested Group is NetSuite's number one partner in the agriculture space.

The Phased Approach

The Vested Group offers the following implementation approaches:

Phase Zero

A unique service offered by The Vested Group, Phase Zero ensures that your company has a successful implementation. Phase Zero is specifically structured to walk your organization through planning and analysis steps that will identify current processes, define and prioritize system requirements, create future state process flows to gain consensus on your most important functions and review your company’s legacy data and conversions needs to ensure success.

Implementations

The Vested Group offers full-scale implementation services combining NetSuite’s best practices with experience and project management skills to complete a successful implementation tailored to the specific needs of your business. The Vested Group takes a collaborative approach with your team to ensure that your implementation is done in a timely manner while still allowing them to perform their regular duties with minimal interruption.

inVESTED

Companies take a “crawl, walk, run” approach when implementing a new system with The Vested Group. After the initial project is complete, there is usually a list of high value items that were excluded from Phase One due to reducing cost or risk concerns. Most companies never actually complete these tasks and as a result never fulfill the vision they expected.

The Vested Group addresses this gap with its dedicated NetSuite support practice - inVESTED. The inVESTED team of NetSuite consultants will help you add new, value added functionality post go-live to ensure you get the highest return on your NetSuite investment as possible. Additionally, as your business grows and changes we will work with you to keep your business and your system in alignment.
