How do the internet and enterprise resource planning (erp) systems affect global supply chains?

Internet and ERP helps to improve collaborative planning, enhance supply chain strategies, and help organizations that uses these technology meet the growing demands from a global customer base.

Explanation:

ERP systems offer organizations the ability to manage and deploy resources from multiple vendors. Parts from a supplier across the globe, raw goods from  warehouse, all can be managed through the ERP system. This ability to manage a complex assortment of goods across multiple orders provides a strong competitive advantage. The internet is the backbone through which ERP rides on.

An ERP system can help organizations meet the demands for mass customization. Its ability to manage multiple vendors, keep track of inventory, and track orders from start to finish make it easier to offer customization.

ERP is a natural extension of materials requirement planning (MRP) systems from past decades. An ERP system provides a comprehensive management system that integrates transactions, material planning and many other functions into one complete system.
