Abstract
Enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems are among the most important information technology (IT) development efforts to accommodate the operation of an organization into a single IT platform. Before the advent of ERP technology, a significant number of proprietary systems were employed in order to cover the IT needs of a corporation. Through the use of ERP technology, only one platform was necessary. The price to pay for such a technological breakthrough is deployment complexity. In this study, we present our experiences in the deployment of an ERP system in a real world corporation department (a Human Resources department), and the relevant problems appeared all the way from the blueprints implementation to the go live stage
