ERP (Enterprise resource

planning)
• ERP is a software application that helps an
organization
 to integrate its various functions
 to make optimum utilization of management
resources and
 improve its process efficiency.
• ERP delivers a single database that
contains all data for the software
modules.
• ERP ensures that data entered in any
one of the functional module is made
available to other module that need
the data.
• This improves the consistency and
integrity of data
• It standardized and reduced the
number of software specialties
ERP ARCHITECTURE
• It is multi layered consists of :-
 Hardware layer
 relational database layer
 database access layer
 application layer and
 Software layer
Why ERP architecture
 It is the first activity of an ERP project
 Facilitates communication
 Transaction among the members of
the supply chain
 It determines that’s whether a
particular package of ERP serves the
organization requirement or not…
 AN ORGANISATION CAN IMPLEMENT THE ERP
SYSTEM USING EITHER OF TWO APPROACHES :

• BIG BANG APPROACH

• PHASED APPROACH
• All the module are implemented at one go.
• It forces employee to cope with the
change quickly
• Bring the desired benefit in a short span of
time
• It Calls for rapid realignment of process,
greater commitment from the
organization.
• Project is divided into logical phases
• Phases are implemented one at a time
• Each phases focus on a particular key area
• At the end of the project, the system is
tested to ensure that all the module of
system are integrated.
• Risk can be more easily controlled in this
approach.
• “AS-IS”--------PROCESS STUDY
• “TO-BE”------PROCESS DESIGN
• “SIMULATION”
• “ACTUAL IMPLEMENTATION”
• What ERP is all about?
• What exactly is required for implementing
the project effectively.
• Organization fail to plan the project
implementation detail.
• Organization fail to provide the proper
training to its employee.
