...Who Are the ERP Vendors? Depending on who you talk to, the primary ERP vendors are referred to as BOPSE (BAAN, Oracle, PeopleSoft, SAP, and J.D. Edwards). Other ERP firms include (but are not limited to) Great Plains, Lawson, Platinum, QAD, and Ross and Solomon (see e.g. Keeling 1996; Kersnar and May 1999). For additional information, see PricewaterhouseCoopers (1998). BAAN (www.baan.com) BAAN was founded in the Netherlands in 1978. BAAN's ERP market share is roughly 5% (Stein 1997), and 1998 revenues were roughly $750 million (Bylinsky 1999). BAAN has approximately 3,000 clients in 5,000 sites world-wide. BAAN was thrust into the national ERP software spotlight when they won the Boeing ERP engagement in 1994. The founders recently left BAAN, in part because of irregularities in financial reporting that led to inflated sales figures (Maremont and Rose 1998). Oracle (www.oracle.com) Oracle is the second-largest supplier of software in the world. However, they are perhaps best known for their database system, not their ERP applications. Oracle was founded in 1977 in the United States. Oracle's applications were developed for the U.S. market in 1989 and for the international market in 1993. In 1997, Oracle announced that they were going to market to specific industries tries (Greenberg 1997a) and improve the international characteristics of their software (Greenberg 1997b).

...information needs to be communicated correctly between each of the existing organizations information systems. Enterprise Resource Planning Established businesses have tailored their information systems to meet the growing needs of the business. In these cases, separate information systems may have been installed to meet the objectives of each of the organizations. What businesses have realized, is the information system standalone systems did not communicate effectively (if at all). (Rainer & Turban, 2011). Consequently, the individual information systems are acting as silos, containing information that cannot be shared from one information system to another. Eventually, businesses need to fill the communication gaps that exist. Linking these separate information systems creates a challenge for the business. There are a few well known software suppliers that provide flexible business suites that are able to integrate the disjointed information systems under one complete system solution. Oracle and SAP are the most popular suppliers of such systems. Within the business suite these systems are known as Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) applications. Enterprise Resource Planning offered by SAP serves to solve the information systems communication gaps between the various business functions such as; Human Resources, Finance and Operations.

...updated with the Information Technology solutions. The manufacturing sector is one of the main economic activities in most of the nations. The most important aspect to characterize IT adoption is the industry and its specific characteristics rather than the country the firms belong to. Different industries have different operating characteristics and environments, and the factors related to ERP use may differ accordingly. Given the complexity of manufacturing firms, we then decide which aspects of a firm influence the use of technological innovations. Most of the manufacturing companies rely on ERP software to manage the entire range of business activities from CRM, manufacturing inventory and processes, accounting software, manufacturing planning, purchasing, quality, and more. For implementing ERP in any manufacturing industry the research objectives revolve around the following parameters(Mainly cost and quality measurement) * To identify whether there is significant difference in performance measures like cost and quality in industries with well defined IT system and industries with not such well defined IT systems with respect to the manufacturing sector. * To identify various constructs for measurement of performance and factors influencing the performance. * To find importance of project management to achieve cost and Quality Measures.
