‍The Problem

‍MPAMOT Group underwent a period of rapid expansion following its transition away from Mott MacDonald. As the organisation needed to integrate two business systems, it needed a robust, enterprise-scale ERP system to support this integration and growth. The leadership recognised the need for a solution that could:

• Provide an enterprise-wide, integrated business management system to support the firm’s expansion;
• Streamline and enhance operational efficiency across the group;• Improve collaboration and decision-making;
• Centralise information storage and accessibility;
• Enable better resource management and workforce planning; and
• Enhance business reporting capabilities

With the migration from two legacy systems, MPAMOT had the unique opportunity to implement a best-of-breed ERP solution. The goal was to equip the firm with a future-proofed technology stack that could scale alongside its growth trajectory.

The Solution

After a rigorous selection process, MPAMOT partnered with Silversoft, a Platinum Deltek partner, to implement Deltek Vantagepoint and Deltek Talent in the Cloud. These solutions were chosen for their industry-leading capabilities tailored to consulting engineering firms. The implementation provided MPAMOT with:

• End-to-End Business Management: A single system to manage projects, financials, and operations efficiently.
