In order to take part in the final, the companies had to qualify in advance. An independent jury with digital and industry experts from consulting, science and journalism evaluated the submissions for the ERP system of the year. The focus was on innovative functions and special unique selling points. A total of eight criteria were used for the evaluation, including industry suitability through specific functions, architecture and interfaces, research and development and ergonomics. Three further evaluation criteria (specific customer benefits, experiences and satisfaction with the selected ERP system, introduction procedure with the selected ERP system) are collected through customer surveys. KUMAVISION was able to completely convince the jury and is one of only three companies that made it to the final round.
