Currently ERP market is experiencing a transformation from vertical product-centric architectures into horizontal customer-centric architectures. Generally, traditional product centric approach is tightly inter-coupled and ends up being inflexible and insular. On the other-hand the horizontal approach is more loosely coupled and adaptive. It is built for an era of specialization. We recommend this enterprise SOA approach to ERP application development.
Following trends are reshaping ERP development and delivery approaches to great extent:
- Adaptability to the Internet: Need for internet enabling ERP solutions which provide anytime, anywhere access is a growing trend
- Improvement on integration and flexibility: Integrating two applications from the same vendor is generally a challenge, but integrating applications from a variety of vendors is further difficult, which is major requirement for current ERP solutions. SoftMass uses its expertise in XML, Web Services and other integration standards for development and integration of current ERP solutions with other applications in organizations.
- Embracing e-business: Increasing demand for integration of e-business services such as CRM, Business Intelligence. e-Procurement and supply chain management solutions within ERP platform
- Reaching out to new users: Need for using ERP data by multi-enterprise users, mobile users
