Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems have been recognized as complex and costly, which limited their implementation in large organizations. However, an increasing number of small organizations have recently gained interest in this system. This paper investigates the implementation process of ERP in a small firm. The investigation focused on two perspectives of ERP implementation: successes achieved and problems encountered. Despite many problems encountered in the firm, the ERP system still exists. This gives evidence that small organizations are more flexible and motivated to adapt to change and implement an ERP system. Most problems were encountered at early stages of implementation, which can be minimized if deliberate decision making of ERP implementation and proper selection processes were in place. Further, ERP is a good solution for small organizations if they are able to build a relevant in-house system.

Enterprise Resource Planning system is a software that suitable for the user to earn more ROI by involving business activities. By the way, most organizations are still afraid to adopt this to their organizations. The reason is the high-cost wastage, and also bankruptcy. But it is not true at all the time. ERP can implement to small and medium-sized organizations too. To clarify these points, the paper focuses on the critical factors that affect the success of an ERP implementation process. It will do by a conceptual framework. It review and assertion of 15 hypotheses will carry out using "structural equation modeling technique". The definition of multi-variable technology used since the ability to check multiple linear connections at once simultaneously depends on one or more variables dependently and independently.

Business Process Performance

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) is an information system which integrates business functions and processes. ERP systems are widely used in different commercial organizations and industries. For a number of reasons, ERP can be the cause of success in an organization and help improve individual’s performance in an organization by supporting better decision making. It is especially useful in helping an organization improve its productivity, reduce its operational cost and improve quality by efficient use of resources and effective communication. ERP implementation strategy greatly influences an industry‘s business process performance and can help lower organizational resistance to it. It also plays a vital role for business process performance because there is a passionate reaction to ERP that is a characteristic response to change connected with new innovation in an organization. This work is conducted to evaluate the ERP implementation and its influence on enterprise infrastructure, especially how the business performance is improved. The method used in this study is survey based, using interviews from more than 100 experts from different organizations in Karachi, Pakistan. The results show significant role of ERP system in raising business process performance of the organizations. Overall, ERP system impacts heavily an industry in terms of business process performance and also helps improve individual performance, considering how organizational resistance is managed using various strategies and communicating well.

In recent years, more reports and articles have been published on the necessity of implementing changes to manufacturing processes in the context of sustainable development (SD). The use of IT systems in manufacturing companies creates the opportunity to support changes implemented in the context of adaptation to the concept of SD. This paper proposes and explores a Sustainable Development Card (SDC) within an enterprise, the use of which will enable knowledge about the enterprise’s development level to be gained in the context of SD through the data and information collected from the information system, namely, the Enterprise Resource Planning system (ERP) implemented within a company. This research uses studies from the literature on the subject and also the case study in order to determine the SDC integrated with the ERP system. The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method is used, which uses validity indicators to allow a manufacturing company’s development to be evaluated within the context of SD. The results were verified by a real case study of a Polish manufacturing company. It was determined that the proposed approach allows SD to be assessed in a manufacturing company and enables the implementation process of SD strategy to be constantly monitored. This paper contributes to theory and practice at the interface of the development and sustainability of a manufacturing company, whereby assessing sustainability is associated with the development of strategy and information systems that are associated with the development of an organisation. The possibilities of using the results of research, in practice, are demonstrated convincingly.

Experience Questionnaire

ERP or Enterprise Resource Planning is a design that has been applied in an educational institution or company that can be used to organize, coordinate and manage the system resources in it to be more integrated. The refusal of system users to use the ERP system (new system) is one of the failure factors for ERP system implementation that should be considered by higher education companies. User's lack of understanding by users can cause users to simply be forced to use without being adapted to a qualified use of the ERP system. In addition to the importance of the ERP implementation process in a company or university, there is also an influence on the system's user experience as the key to the success of ERP implementation to minimize failures in the ERP system process. This study uses the User Experience Questionnaire Framework to analyze, measure and find out significantly how much influence the user experience level has on the PeopleSoft Oracle Campus Solution ERP system using the six aspects contained in the framework UEQ on the modules Student Record, Academic Advisement, and Student Financial in the respective departments at UMN. The research was conducted quantitatively, namely the collection and collection of data to be carried out through the distribution of questionnaires online and carried out using SPSS software. The results of the measurement level obtained based on the mean and benchmark data user experience from the six UEQ scales from the highest to the lowest value level are Dependability is in the category (Excellent), Stimulation is in the category (Excellent), Novelty is in the category (Excellent), Perspicuity category is in the category (Good), Attractiveness is in the category (Good), and Efficiency is in the category (Good) and partially or completely can have a significant 61% influence on the use of modules in the ERP system at UMN. Keywords: ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning), UEQ (User Experience Questionnaire), Quantitative, SPSS.
