What happens when public finance professionals get honest about their ERP experiences? At GFOA 2025, the Avero Advisors team set up a "confessional wall" at their booth—and the stories poured in.

In this episode, AV, Megan, Robert, and David break down the most common ERP regrets and mistakes they heard firsthand. From 99-page RFPs that got zero bidders to letting vendors define go-live dates, we unpack what went wrong—and what to do differently next time.

Expect real-world lessons on:

  • RFP strategy that actually gets responses
  • Why vendor selection should go beyond price
  • The true cost of letting the wrong people lead implementation
  • The risks of underestimating project management needs
  • And how to avoid contract confusion that derails projects

Whether you’re in procurement, finance, IT, or executive leadership—this episode is a must-listen for anyone planning a tech project in the public sector.
