ERP - building on the basics

Sage white paper

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software can provide significant benefits to companies seeking to take advantage of improving economic conditions. Improved liquidity, better financial and business-wide reporting and decision making, and reduced duplication of data and processes are just some of the tangible benefits.

This white paper details the results of a Computing survey of ERP users, in which they were asked about the benefits - or otherwise - of ERP in the areas of finance, management information and other business processes.

ERP scored highly in terms of enabling operational efficiency, cash-flow and financial reporting, and inter-departmental communication. However, budgetary restrictions and perceptions of inflexibility are leading some to delay deploying the software. These concerns could be ameliorated by the new generation of ERP software which may be deployed in the cloud or over mobile devices.
