With 2019 starting and so close to an end of a financial year, companies routinely have to keep a check on all the systems and processes to see if they are adequately functioning. One such crucial system that should be timely updated is Enterprise Resource Planning. An ERP system plays an essential part in the digital transformation of the organization and hence those operating it needs to stay abreast with the latest tool and technological advancement in ERP.
With the evolving consumer’s demand, organizations have to buckle up and bring necessary transformations to the ERP systems to stay relevant and gain a competitive edge in this vast enterprise resource planning landscape.
In our today post, we are going to cover some significant 2019 ERP trends to keep your ERP relevant and if there is a need to replace or update your ERP system:
ADOPT ERP, EVEN IF YOU ARE A SMALL BUSINESS:
Traditionally ERP was considered a tool only for large enterprises, but with the adoption and implementation of cloud integration, the total cost of storage and software implementation has significantly minimized, making cloud deployment an affordable choice for organization be it small, medium or large.
IMPLEMENT CLOUD:
Cloud integration is no longer just an option for the enterprises; it should be mandatory implementation. Strategize and deploy cloud for better storage and accessibility of your data. Make sure to include your ERP and other crucial systems in it.
FORGE ROBUST PARTNERSHIP:
How an ERP can play a pivotal role in strengthening or forging our relationship with the trading partner, a trading partner that operations on the latest tools and technology can shape your organization. Be selective when looking for an ERP trading partner, and only go for those that implement technology that aligns with your business’s objectives.
DON’T FORGET DATA:
Every organization is finding ways to gain better insight into its customer data in order to develop an effective strategy to enrich the customer experience. Make sure your ERP has the ability to access, analyze and use the data gathered from different sources to enhance your business operation. Furthermore, ERP will be integrated with business automation, intelligence to design a well-informed marketing campaign. The aim is no longer to gather data but utilize it to enhance productivity.
SECURITY:
Never, never forget about security. Especially after the 2018 social media data privacy fiasco, which revealed the most significant loophole in data security. This time of cybercrimes and sly accessibility of data demands an ERP system that protects, monitors and timely audits the information that it stores.
