Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)



An Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system is an integrated computer-based application used to manage internal and external resources, including tangible assets, financial resources, materials, and human resources. Its purpose is to facilitate the flow of information between all business functions inside the boundaries of the organization and manage the connections to outside stakeholders. Built on a centralized database and normally utilizing a common computing platform, ERP systems consolidate all business operations into a uniform and enterprise-wide system environment.







Main Features of our ERP include:


  • Financials
  • Supply chain management (SCM)  
  • Manufacturing
  • Warehouse Management 
  • Distribution
  • Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
  • Decision Support
