"This fixed fee approach enables clients to speed time-to-value, reduce spend and risk, and eliminate the business disruption caused by long, drawn out ERP implementations," Merit CEO Bill Burke said in a prepared statement. For those organizations needing more than financials, Merit offers fixed-fee add-ons that include modular, fixed-fee add-ons including Segregation of Duties (custom user security roles to support Sarbanes Oxley and FDA compliance) for $40,000; Inventory, Supply Chain and Sub-Contract Manufacturing for $60,000; and Customer Orders for $30,000. The Merit Plus Business Transformation Mapping (BTM) services model is still available for those who have needs for unique configurations.
