Table of Contents
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems are super important for businesses. They help make things run smoother and better. Usually, people think ERP is just for things like money, people, and supply chains. But ERP has a big impact on how products are managed from the beginning to the end.
Product Management Life Cycle with ERP is the journey a product takes from being an idea to being done. This includes coming up with the idea, planning, making the product, launching it, and what happens after.
ERP systems are great because they help with every step of this journey. They help make decisions based on data, they help teams work together, and they make sure everything runs smoothly from start to finish.
Product Life Cycle Management (PLM) is all about managing a product from when it's just an idea to when it's not used anymore. It's about making sure the product is good, innovative, and that everything runs well.
ERP and PLM are different, but they work together. They focus on different things but when they work together, they make everything work better.
Here's how ERP helps with each step of the product life cycle:
• Ideas and Planning:
