Brief introduction to Open ERP for international students of the International Bachelor in Information Management Programa. Deusto University is taking part in that program, besides of Tilburg University in Netherlands and Bentley University in Boston, MA, USA.
We have to learn ERP because in future if we get to develop an ERP module or work on it, then we must understand the business needs that it is trying to fulfill.
When we clearly understand the functioning of a department in an enterprise, then we will be able to develop a module to automate it.
We also need to understand the interaction between modules.
Few years ago, business leaders used to adopt a set of techniques and technologies to transform raw data into meaningful information, which is called business intelligence (BI). And in today’s time, business leaders need a solution that is contextually responsive, which is exactly what Call Sumo provides.

Unit Lesson
Just What is ERP?
To answer this question, it helps to look back and consider how companies managed
before enterprise resource planning (ERP). Companies consist of a number of
functions that each work together to earn a profit. These include the creation of a
product, (Research and Development (R&D), the production of a product
(manufacturing), locating clients and offering the product for sale (Sales and
Marketing), shipping the product (warehouse functions), and finally, taking money and
accounting for the sale (Finance and Accounting). Prior to the advent of computer
systems in business, each function carried out their respective jobs on paper, and kept
detailed records in journals, file folders, and filing systems. As the technology became
available, some of these paper functions became computerized in order to make them
more efficient. However, computerization did not solve the fundamental problem of the
paper organization—the difficulty of sharing data.
In a paper organization, accounting kept the books in accounting journals, sales and
marketing made notes of contacts in pocket planners and wrote paper reports—or
perhaps even sent and received faxes. R&D kept records in engineering notebooks,
and finally, the warehouse function kept files and records of incoming and outgoing
transactions. ERP was a response to the problem of the intra-organizational sharing of

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) exists in every enterprise. It is often a low priority for IT managers until changes to the business make a very real, and very expensive, project. The real cost of a failed ERP initiative is IT careers. ERP is always challenging, so IT leaders must determine which of three strategies are most appropriate:
•Stick. Maintain the existing system and establish a date to revisit the strategy.
•Augment. Stay on the existing ERP platform, but augment with additional modules, custom development, or bolt-ons.
•Rip & Replace. Initiate the move to a new ERP system.
The best way to develop an ERP plan is through an annual audit that assesses the priorities of the enterprise and capabilities of the existing ERP platform. Use this storyboard and associated tools to get your ERP strategy on the right track.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

some of the established goals”
In the business management field, we will mainly be interested in business information
systems (also known as management information systems)
“A business or management information system is a set of people, technologies and
procedures that resolve business problems”
Compared to other information systems, these ones mainly focus in
automatizing and giving support to the decision taking process
They play a key role within organizations
They channel information along different departments in the company

Information access → centralized database
Process and resource management
International operations → supporting different tax systems, bank regulations,

Enterprise resource coordinated management (cont)
Modern global supply chains, experts say, mirror complex biological systems like
the human body in many ways → ERP is absolutely compulsory!
The global flow of goods routinely adapts to all kinds of glitches and setbacks
A supply breakdown in one factory in one country, for example, is quickly
replaced by added shipments from suppliers elsewhere in the network
i.e. When a volcano erupted in Iceland last spring, spewing ash across
northern Europe and grounding air travel, supply-chain wizards were put
to a test, juggling production and shipments worldwide to keep supplies
flowing
Consider computing and electronics
In the early 1990s, virtually all 486-microprocessors were made at a single Intel
factory near Jerusalem
In 2011, production for major components (semiconductors, screens,
microprocessors, etc.) is spread across several countries

Globalization and technology have been the
driving forces → supply lines are longer and
far more complex than in the past
The ability to manage these complex
networks, experts say, has become possible

Productivity
Many studies have shown that the wider use of information and communication
technologies (ICT) explains why the USA is more productive than the European Union
Until the mid-1990s, EU productivity had been converging towards US
productivity
Since then, US growth has accelerated and the US-EU gap has widened
The production and use of information and communication technologies (ICT) are
much lower in the EU than in the US and that this explains much of the relative
slowdown
Why has the adoption of the new ICT been much slower in the EU?
The adoption is associated with an increase in the variance of firm productivity
For example, implementation of advanced business software like SAP and
Oracle requires a new organizational structure and the outcome is
inherently uncertain
The variance of firm productivity is therefore relatively large in sectors that
intensively use ICT

Chronological process (II)
Why it is recommended to change business practice to suit the ERP software rather
than customizing the software?
Before implementing an ERP software the organization needs to:
Analyze current processes
Identify non-value adding activities
Redesign the process to create value for the customer
Then, develop an ERP system package to suit the organizations requirements
A key contribution of ERP software is the bundled business process knowledge that
comes along with ERP software
These processes have evolved over the past two decades of ERP implementation
in some of the most well-managed corporations around the world
By adapting to those processes that have proved successful in some of the finest
corporations around the world, an organization implementing ERP would get the
advantage of these best of the breed practices → consultant recommendations

1) Take the decision to implement an ERP
Do we already have clear that we need an ERP for our company?
Fast technological changes have provoked companies not to demand specific
solutions for their problems, but integrated solutions such as ERP
When C-level managers realize that profits exceed costs when every single department
is sharing information through an ERP, they ask a consulting firm to assess them in
choosing and deploying an ERP solution
Some questions to answer:
Where is the company right now?
Where does the company want to be?
What is exactly what the company needs?
Where exactly do we must start?
Who is the responsible?

28. ERP implementation
2) ERP selection
Prior to choose a specific solution, we must check that
Every single functional aspect is properly covered
Processes are properly integrated
Lately deployed IT → Are they compatible with the new solution?
Customization capacity (specific software) and parametrization utilities
Can the business absorb implicit cost?
Is the ROI positive? (regarding also opportunity costs)

2) ERP selection (II)
Proprietary ERP software
Microsoft Dynamics NAV, Sage/API, SAP R/3, BAAN, Oracle E-
Business Suite y JD Edwards, Eurowin, etc.
Free and Open Source ERP software
OpenERP, Compiere, Open Bravo, Apache OFBix/opentaps, ERP5,
OpenMFG, OpenPro, etc.

In 2010 (of over 1.600 companies)
Tier II solutions have increased their market
share by 30% since 2008
SAP is still the benchmark in the ERP market
Oracle eBusiness has been the most demanded
solution
Dynamics the most profitable one (payback and
ROI)
In almost 72% of the implementations,
parameterizations were done, while in up to
24% of them almost full parameterizations
Tier I solutions usually require more
parameterizations than Tier II and III solutions
Albeit 72% of the companies answer
satisfactorily to the performance of its vendor,
55% of them expose how their solutions
provided 30% or less of the expected profits

The closest future
CRM and SCM integration (OpenERP has some modules that already do it CRM & SRM)
“With GSI Deal, eBay Shifts to Big Retail: EBay, synonymous with second-hand wares, is seeking a
new retail identity, from small power sellers to connect with large retailers (Toys “R” Us,
Aéropostale and Kenneth Cole, etc.).” [03/29/2011]
Web architecture instead of desktop (OpenERP offers both GTK client and web)
Wireless technologies and progress in mobile technologies
“Why SAP Is Buying Sybase for $5.8 billion”; “SAP relies on Sybase’s strengths in transporting
data to and from the smartphones of customers.” [05/12/2011]
Open Source ERPs are a down to earth solution (both on functionality and acceptance)
Big corporations were the first ones to deploy ERPs
But, recently, SME (95% of employment in Spain) are starting to grab market share
“SAP launches innovative new solution for U.S. SME businesses”; “While many SME have
invested in multiple software applications, several report that they lack the ability to access the
information they need, when they need it, to make critical decisions.” [09/14/2011]

35. ERP Implementation
3) BPR (Business Process Reengineering)
It is a key pre-requirement to any implementation
It emphasizes current system's drawbacks
It stresses and tries to maximize the productivity restructuring and reorganizing
human resources, departments, functions, etc.
Basic principles:
Understand
Simplify
Automate
Tools: brain storming, previous complaints, interviews with the responsibles, job title
definitions, etc.
Atlantis – IBIM Program at the University of Deusto – Why does my company need OpenERP? 35
36. ERP Implementation
4) Implementation
An ERP implementation it is a long process that implies two working groups:
Parameterizing group: consulting firm
Implementation group: within the organization or a consulting firm
Classic question: how long will it take the implementation?
Commercials usually say that 6 to up to maximum 9 months
However, it usually takes between 18 and 24 months usually (a recent study to 1.600
ERP implementations over the world fiexed the average on 18 months)
Problem: those are the months for the “go-live” (one the main phases, see next slide)
This includes the implementation of the basic functionality, but it is just an initial step
until the company really sees a Return On Investment (ROI)
Similar to what happens with the Social Media strategy
How can I know that an ERP will be profitable for my company?

The Great Mystery of the ERP 10-Year Itch: Why Businesses Can't Seem to Stick with
Their ERP Software for More Than 10 Years?
Like most capital investments, CIOs and CFOs typically expect the investment in
their new ERP software to last ten or more years
Problem: technology → fast changes that it is simply not feasible to remain too far
behind the curve for too long
What is new in 2011? SaaS, cloud-based and hosted ERP software
Even if your software isn't outdated per se, there are enough ERP vendors
developing compelling new solutions that make it tough to not at least think
about replacing your current system
In most cases, however, the software itself isn't the problem
Most of the leading vendors in the marketplace have been around for 20 years or
more, so you would think that their offerings would be keeping up to date with
technology trends (JD Edwards from Oracle, BAAN from Infor, and Epicor)
Atlantis – IBIM Program at the University of Deusto – Why does my company need OpenERP? 38
39. ERP Implementation
4) Implementation (IV)
It all comes back to misalignment between the business and the software itself
Atlantis – IBIM Program at the University of Deusto – Why does my company need OpenERP? 39
40. ERP Implementation
4) Implementation (V)
The business is not going to stand still just because you don't want to deal with replacing
your ERP software
ERP vendor isn't going to create a custom application just for you that meets all of your
evolving business needs
First: do not stop upgrading your software. ERP vendors spend millions of dollars
each year on making their software better, faster, and more robust to meet changing
business needs, so the longer you wait to upgrade, the more you are exposing
misalignments in the software
Second: revisit your software on an ongoing basis. You may find that it's time to
replace it with something new, but you may also find that some simple configuration
changes to the software or business process improvements will close the gap between
what it's doing now and what the business needs. It's unlikely you will delay the need
for an ERP software selection indefinitely, but it will buy you more time and a higher
ROI on the original investment in the meantime

6) Success analysis
Profits and returns will arrive, but we must be patient
Basic functionality of the Phase 1 just provides a 30 – 50% of the profits
Some companies see how their expectations are not satisfied (perhaps the
problem is that they had not established well their expectations). Perhaps,
that is why 72% of them do not go over this initial phase
The important fact is to step up next two phases:
Phase 2: adding modules for report generation, exhaustive analysis,
mobility, etc.
Phase 3: Business Intelligence modules. Take advantage of the full
potential of an ERP, this is, generate wisdom from it
Just 28% of the companies arrive to this finish line :-(
These ones are the phases for business processes' restructuring (Business
Process Management, GexAP of Ibermática, SAP Starter Kit) and change
in organizational model

6) Success analysis (II)
So, if an ERP offers me competitive advantages and a ROI, how can I measure
those returns? i.e. Panorama Consulting Group: ROI calculator

Some of the main benefits of implementing and ERP solutions:
More accurate information
Tighter control of the costs
Faster answer to our clients
Tracking and monitoring activities
Quick answer to technological and market changes
Improvement of the interrelations in the value chain
It allows to have a unique client database table for all the companies within the group
It will make easier for the international operations
It allows daily accounting
Reduces paper documentation
Reduces activity duplication

Some of the main costs of implementing and ERP solutions
Less obvious costs (€/$)
Loss of clients when the system fails
Operational delays
Fails while parameterizing, defining, etc.
Uncertainty risks when choosing software supplier
Some employees' responsibilities
Migration of databases
Structural organizational problems are not fixed just by implementing and ERP
They do not imply previous and later steps/phases if it is a partial implementation
Atlantis – IBIM Program at the University of Deusto – Why does my company need OpenERP? 47
48. ERP Implementation
6) Success analysis (VII)
The parameterizing of some ERPs is quite limited
Some ERP are quite expensive (SAP Business One 20.000 € + programmer for
about 3.000 €)
Some ERP are seen by the market as very stiff and hardly adaptable solutions
for the organizational workflow and business process requirements (in OpenERP
both workflow and business processes are quite intuitive)
