Abstract

Commerce and trade around the world require cutting edge tools and business process systems to stay competitive. All around us, this is manifested in how industries—big or small—conduct businesses and adopt new manufacturing and business systems to remain profitable. During the mid-20th century, businesses in the Western world began to adopt material requirements planning to streamline production processes till the finished product. While material requirements planning itself, at that point of time, was not unheard of, the introduction of computers and information technology revolutionised the way material requirements planning was adopted. Researchers and proponents of an integrated information system agree that material requirements planning predated enterprise resource planning (ERP) that has since been a central theme and prime mover of all information and data within organizations.
