The evolution of ERP/MRP comes together with the change in business processes and new businesses models emerging.
The evolution of ERP/MRP comes together with the change in business processes
and new businesses models emerging. If we look at the companies, going public in
.com era and now, we could recognize very unusual business models, such as
Google, which is neither really paid services, nor advertising media. Looking at
the other companies, such as eBay, Amazon.com we could say that the shift for
the ERP is made from traditional business processes, such as manufacturing,
customer service, project management, accounting to more generic processes, such
as Supply Chain Management (SCM), where you cant identify standard
functionality it is mixture of warehouse management, EDI and extranet for your
business vendors and customers, barcoding, consignment, shipping & receiving,
etc. Considering these trends, ERP design should be really revised and geared
toward the future change and systems integration, customization and
interoperability
Late 1980th this was the time when ERP functionality was kind of agreed
upon: Finance, Discrete or Process Manufacturing, Sales Order Processing,
Accounts Payable, etc. The real challenge was in surviving through computer
hardware, operating systems and database platform battles of 1990th. We see
multiple major ERP products currently on the market, architectured in this
period: Microsoft Great Plains/Dynamics GP is very good example. This product
architecture is Great Plains Dexterity, which had hardware, OS and DB
independence in its design C programming language was a hope and Dexterity is
a shell, written in C. In 1990th there was a conception of rich functionality
MRP (Oracle, SAP, PeopleSoft) and standard functionality ERP mid-market
Great Plains, Solomon, Navision, etc.
Global Market. Even small or mid-size consulting company, having its own ERP
add-ons and small products, has to go for Worldwide clientele. Plus clients
themselves are going Worldwide and require its ERP partner to support their
subsidiaries overseas
Axapta or now Microsoft Dynamics AX. Being designed at the end of XX century
with the three-tier model and supporting such modern technologies as Unicode
(Chinese, Japanese languages), MS SQL Server, XML Web Services, having CRM
module and being localized for over 30 nations. Axapta is targeted to upper
mid-size and large corporate markets, plus it has excellent positions to
automate worldwide operations for multinational corporation.
Brazil. Microsoft Business Solutions in Sao Paulo has Axapta as a rising star
to win over Brazilian market. In our opinion, Brazilian agriculture and food
processing/export businesses might be in the best synergy, plus
telecommunications, franchising network, services. Multinational corporations
are also in the loop Microsoft Dynamics AX is Microsoft answer to Oracle
e-Business Suite and SAP mySAP
MarphX/X++ versus C#. As it was announced on Convergence 2006 MorphX will be
ported to .Net platform, so you as software programmer/developer could us all
.Net languages, including X++ to customize Axapta.
