what is ERP vendor and implementor?

Here is the major list:

It depends on what software vendor you choose. Sometimes the ERP vendor flies people out from the corporate office to implement your software. Sometimes the ERP vendor has a channel/partner program where each geographical area has it's own group of consultants that implement for the vendor(s).

Each method has it's advantages/disadvantages. However, I've found that unless you're in the corporate office's back yard - it's much less expensive and more timely to go with a channel partner (i.e. don't have to pay for hotel/airfare and they are within driving distance so usually can respond more promptly).

If you are a 250 million plus company you want to look at Oracle and SAP.

If you are below 200 million, don't waste you're time looking at anyone on that list except for:
Epicor (new system is a bit buggy though)
IFS
Lilly Software (now Infor)

Good luck.
