Use of enterprise resource planning in industrial revolution 4.0

In the era of the industrial revolution 4.0, industrial players are required to be able to keep abreast of the times, in order to remain competitive in that era. One way is to maintain and enhance existing competitive advantages by optimizing the company’s value chain through the integration of all divisions. One way to achieve this goal is to use the tools of a planning information system called Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) to support the optimization of the company’s value chain activities from upstream to downstream, up to performance analysis of all relevant parts through data which are collected centrally to then be used as a basis for decision making. ERP is not without weaknesses, so it must be well considered what modules will be used when planning and the factors in choosing the right ERP solution. ICIC International © 2021.
