Pain Points Challenges for future Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems
Year: 2007
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: . The questions asked in this paper are for the first: what pain points challenges are there for future enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, and second, what pain points challenges should the development of future ERPs solve. These questions are discussed by referring to findings from an interview study with executives in a major ERP vendor organiza-tion. In addition to the empirical findings a limited literature study was conducted and findings from the literature are used to analyze pain points given by the executives. From the analysis some conclusions are drawn and some future research areas are suggested. The aim of the paper is to build a foundation for what future development of ERPs should focus on and the paper does so by presenting pain points challenges for future ERPs. In that way the paper presents the first step in requirements gathering and requirements analyzing that could be used as input for the development of future ERPs and thereby manage the challenges that the pain points suggest.
