ERP & Analytics: Why Visibility Fails

The data exists. It doesn't get used.

They don't create control.

This is where it breaks

What happens is teams export data into spreadsheets because they don't trust the system — and decisions get made outside the platform entirely.

If the system doesn't drive action, it's just storage.

If reporting doesn't change behaviour, it isn't working.
