Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Software
Connect your business across departments
One of the most important ways our team helps companies to thrive and grow is with cloud-based ERP solutions. ERP is an abbreviation for Enterprise Resource Planning. It’s essentially a software program that’s linked to a central database with the goal of simplifying business processes like inventory, order handling, accounting, HR, project management, and communication.
What is ERP software?
Most ERP business solutions are modular, so there’s a section (module) that contains all the functions for each department – whether it’s finance, HR, or manufacturing. In the past, most workers would only be given access to the module that matched their role. But, with today’s cloud-based ERPs there’s been a shift toward giving users access to the whole system for improved communication and teamwork.
What can an ERP do for you?
ERP business solutions give you a detailed view of what’s happening inside your business along with actionable insights for how to run your operations more effectively. Real-time reports answer questions like:
How much product are we making?
How much inventory do we have?
How many orders are awaiting shipment?
