RE: Is ERP dead? No!!!

[Joe Teff <JoeTeff@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I don't see this as ERP is dead, rather it points to a change in how we are
automating the business. Did the advent of ERP mean that back office
accounting was no longer automated?
No, it just meant that we now automated our entire business and interfaced it
with the parts that were already automated.
Does the advent of data warehouses, supply chain management, customer
relationship management, e-business, etc mean the end of ERP? No, it just
means that we are concentrating on certain aspects of the business and
bringing that into our automated systems.
Sure there will be lots of money thrown at solutions that don't work. Simply
throwing money at something does not ensure success. The same people
responsible for success today, will be the same people tomorrow. That doesn't
make these new things bad. It does mean that sound, innovative
implementations can be a great benefit.
