    The company is reengineering the company’s Intranet/Information systems and enterprise resource planning (ERP) system. The upper management has chosen to implement SAP to connect all aspects of the company; accounting, manufacturing, aircraft services, supply inventory, and customer resource management (CRM). Implementing this new information system (IS) will allow the different parts of the company to operate as one, by allowing the various modules in SAP to communicate and exchange data. SAP will replace all of the outdated and splintered software the company currently uses by allowing easier communication between the departments and the programs that are used. The change was started about three years ago and will be completed in about two years for a total of five years to complete and be fully implemented. Connecting all of the different departments will save a tremendous amount of money for the company. Reengineering the IS systems will allow the sales department and customer representatives more easy access to the customer’s information, such as current and future orders, current aircraft service status or new aircraft delivery time; thereby increasing the customers value and customer…

    Sap America Case Study

    In 1972 SAP was founded by four young software engineers who had come up with a concept for an integrated software package, and their current employer turned it down. This initial idea sparked their first major enterprise information systems product. This took their company public, and after five years SAP’s market capitalization was $15 billion. The expansion that occurred began in Walldorf, Germany where SAP was founding and spread to the America Group. This began in the late 1980’s and was crucial to the SAP’s growth. Once their overseas group took off, there were many elements of their business that needed to be altered and improved to account for their growth. Although they began as a product based company it was very clear to everyone involved that taking care of the client, through implementation and support was crucial to differentiating themselves from competitors within the market, and a key to their survival. The development of an industry strategy was another crucial action that paralleled the growth and support of SAP. This vertical industry strategy was to be delivered through industry centers of expertise (ICOEs), which to serve as a bridge between R/3 customers and the product development organization. This partnering was the key to SAP’s consistent growth, by using the manpower of outside and inside consultants.…

    In order to eliminate the problems associated with legacy systems, a new breed of software systems, called Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), was created. These systems provide a single source of data with designed integration between different functional modules (for example, Accounting, Sales and Distribution, Materials Management, Production planning, etc.). These ERP systems are customized using the table-driven customization method, which provide a common set of data source to the whole organization. Due to table settings instead of old-fashioned hard-coded program logic, new and changed business requirements are rapidly implemented and tested in the system. There are various ERP products available today for example from SAP, Oracle, PeopleSoft, JD Edwards, Salesforce.com, Baan, Microsoft, and HP to name a few.…
