Content

Enterprise systems (ES) are organisation-wide information systems that organise support for business processes, facilitate flows of business information and management decisions, and provide business analytics and reporting services. Enterprise systems play a particularly important role in enterprise resource planning (ERP), which allows smooth integration of information between an enterprise, its supply chain partners and customers, and internally across different business functions with a view to automate a wide range of business activities, such as manufacturing, sales and service provision, finance and accounting, marketing, human resource management, etc. This unit will give students a broad overview of Enterprise Systems, explain their role in running an organisation, and in designing effective business structures and processes. It will also provide students with an opportunity to gain hands-on experience in using the industry-standard Enterprise Resource Planning systems SAP.
