Abstract: Helping managers effectively allocate limited strategic resources in the organisation, enterprise resource planning (ERP) is one of the most important organisational systems that assist accurate and on-time decisions. The aim of this study is to rank critical successful factors (CSFs) for the implementation of ERP in the insurance industry. Although many organisations have adopted ERP, only a few of them are able to achieve the strategic goals. In this study, CSFs for ERP implementation are identified and then ranked by employing grey relational analysis (GRA). The results reveal 12 CSFs, and among them, organisational culture, advanced technology, and staff are considered the highest priority. Based on the results, research and managerial implications are provided.
