Functional Business Model
Alfred P. Sloan developed the functional organizational model in the 1930s as chairman of General Motors
The functional model was very successful for decades, but foreign competition in the 1980s highlighted problems with the model: Flexibility and rapid decision-making were not
possible Organizations had become overstaffed and top-heavy Ability to respond to change was limited

Business Process Model
In a process-oriented company, the flow of information and management activity are “horizontal”—across functions
The “horizontal” flow promotes flexibility and rapid decision-making
Michael Hammer’s Reengineering the Corporation encouraged managers to take a “horizontal” business process view of their companies

Enterprise Resource Planning
Enterprise resource planning (ERP) – integrates all departments and functions throughout an organization into a single IT system
enterprise-wide decisions by viewing enterprise-wide information
![Page 10: Week 7: Enterprise Information Systems MIS 2101: Management Information Systems](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032709/56649eb35503460f94bbb4ee/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Manufacturing Roots of ERP Materials Requirements Planning (MRP) software was
developed in the 1960s and ‘70s
MRP software allowed firms to start with a sales forecast and develop production and raw material plans For companies with many products, raw materials and
shared production resources, MRP was not possible without a computer
Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) allowed a company to communicate its purchase requirements electronically
Sharing long-range production schedules between manufacturers and suppliers was the beginning of supply chain management (SCM)
![Page 11: Week 7: Enterprise Information Systems MIS 2101: Management Information Systems](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032709/56649eb35503460f94bbb4ee/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Enterprise Resource Planning
“Ground up” integration of business processes
A single application ties together multiple business functionsAccounting, purchasing, HR
Applies “best practices” to these processes
![Page 13: Week 7: Enterprise Information Systems MIS 2101: Management Information Systems](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032709/56649eb35503460f94bbb4ee/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Enterprise Resource Planning
Architecturally… The ERP system contains the central database Business units utilize the central system All must conform to the data and procedural
standards of the application
Configuration is notoriously difficult
Implementations are notoriously complex
![Page 14: Week 7: Enterprise Information Systems MIS 2101: Management Information Systems](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032709/56649eb35503460f94bbb4ee/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
14
ERP Vendors
Consolidation is currently taking place in the ERP software business PeopleSoft purchased ERP vendor J.D.
Edwards in 2003 Oracle, after a long battle, acquired
PeopleSoft in 2005 SAP and Oracle are now the two largest
ERP vendors Microsoft is challenging SAP and Oracle to
sell ERP systems to small- and medium-sized businesses
![Page 15: Week 7: Enterprise Information Systems MIS 2101: Management Information Systems](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032709/56649eb35503460f94bbb4ee/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Best of Breed Approach
Best of Breed approach: implement ERP modules from different vendors based on actual or perceived advantages
The Best of Breed approach may become obsolete due to implementation challenges Software must be written to connect different systems Upgrading modules is more complicated with multiple
vendors Real-time data integration is frequently not available
![Page 16: Week 7: Enterprise Information Systems MIS 2101: Management Information Systems](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032709/56649eb35503460f94bbb4ee/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

ERP Benefits
Real Benefits IBM can reprise its product inventory in five
minutes rather than five days A company takes half a day to generate
financial statements instead of several days Sales people can give accurate quotes in 15
mins rather than several hours
Costs Large Company - $50 - 500 mn Midsize company - $10 – 20 mn
![Page 17: Week 7: Enterprise Information Systems MIS 2101: Management Information Systems](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032709/56649eb35503460f94bbb4ee/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

ERP for Midsize Companies
By 1998, most Fortune 500 companies had installed ERP systems
ERP companies began to focus on midsize companies (1,000 or fewer employees)
Midsize companies in Europe have an estimated $50 billion annual IT budget
IT budget for US midsize companies is even larger
To capture the midsize market, SAP developed Industry Solutions—preconfigured versions of its R/3 software for specific industries such as:
Oil and gas, automotive, banking, chemicals, etc.
Application hosting also makes ERP more attractive for midsize companies
![Page 18: Week 7: Enterprise Information Systems MIS 2101: Management Information Systems](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032709/56649eb35503460f94bbb4ee/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

The Formula for Enterprise System Success
1. Secure executive sponsorship Most failures due to lack of top-level management support
2. Get help from outside experts Consultants are specifically trained Implementation tends to happen faster
3. Thoroughly train users Most overlooked, underestimated and poorly budgeted expense Training can prevent dissatisfaction
4. Take a multidisciplinary approach to implementations Include end users from all functional areas in the implementation

Architecture
SAP R/3 system is based on Client/Server architecture that is comprised of three tiers:
Presentation server: Your local PC that has SAPGUI.
Application server: The application server is used to run the business application programs in the R/3 client/server concept. The application modules are loaded from the data base server to the application server as required. Thus the application server requires only storage capacity to accommodate UNIX, Swapping and the SAP runtime environment.
Database server: The data base server stores the SAP application programs and data in the R/3 client/server concept. It also handles the SAP update program and batch jobs.

The Marketing Function
What is the role of Marketing (4 Ps) Product: What products to produce
Promotion: How the products are to be promoted and advertised
Place: How the products should be distributed for maximum customer satisfaction
Price: What price should be charged for the products
![Page 35: Week 7: Enterprise Information Systems MIS 2101: Management Information Systems](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032709/56649eb35503460f94bbb4ee/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
35
The integration of marketing with sales order and accounting
Example: PricingAutomatically compute prices for a
customer Based on sales history and customer
attributes Based on payment history (from accounting)
Facilitates “price discrimination”
![Page 36: Week 7: Enterprise Information Systems MIS 2101: Management Information Systems](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032709/56649eb35503460f94bbb4ee/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

37
Price Discounts in SAP
If a line in the order is over $1000, the discount is 5 percent
If a line in the order is over $1500, the discount is 10 percent
![Page 38: Week 7: Enterprise Information Systems MIS 2101: Management Information Systems](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032709/56649eb35503460f94bbb4ee/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
38
Stages in Customer Relationship
ProspectingPotential new customers are evaluated and
development activities (e-mails, sales calls, mailings, etc.) are planned
AcquiringSalespeople develop business prospects
into customersSales tasks (processing inquiries, quotes,
and sales orders) become increasingly important in this phase.
![Page 39: Week 7: Enterprise Information Systems MIS 2101: Management Information Systems](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032709/56649eb35503460f94bbb4ee/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
39
Stages in Customer Relationship
ServicingTechnical support, warranty work, product
returns, quality problems, complaint handling
RetentionThe rate at which a prospect becomes a
customer is low, so retention is critical • It is easier to retain good customers than to find
new onesAnticipate changes in customer requirements
![Page 40: Week 7: Enterprise Information Systems MIS 2101: Management Information Systems](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032709/56649eb35503460f94bbb4ee/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
40
Customer Relationship Management
Helps a company streamline interactions with customers and make them consistent
Goal is to provide a “single face to the customer” Any employee in contact with a customer should have
access to all information on past interactions Information about a customer should reside in the
ERP system, not with the employee
CRM also provides a company with tools to analyze the vast quantities of sales data available from the ERP system
![Page 41: Week 7: Enterprise Information Systems MIS 2101: Management Information Systems](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032709/56649eb35503460f94bbb4ee/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
41
Core CRM Activities
One-to-One Marketing: Customers are categorized and products, promotions, and pricing
are tailored accordingly. Sales may be increased by cross-selling and upselling
Sales Force Automation (SFA): New customers are automatically routed to the appropriate sales
representative Customer needs are forecasted based on the customer’s history
and transactions
Sales Campaign Management: Helps a company organize a marketing campaign and compile its
results.
![Page 42: Week 7: Enterprise Information Systems MIS 2101: Management Information Systems](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032709/56649eb35503460f94bbb4ee/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
42
Core CRM Activities (continued)
Marketing Encyclopedias: Database of promotional literature Material can be routed to sales representatives or
customers as needed
Call Center Automation: Customer support can be improved with the
assistance of a knowledge management database New solutions to unique customer query can be added
to the knowledgebase, making it “smarter”
![Page 43: Week 7: Enterprise Information Systems MIS 2101: Management Information Systems](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032709/56649eb35503460f94bbb4ee/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)

Benefits of CRM
Lower costs: Better response times in call center operations and better use of sales force
time lowers costs.
Higher revenue: Segmenting customers provide improves selling, increasing revenues.
Improved strategy and performance measurement: With CRM in place, management can think about different performance
measures:• Should salespeople be rewarded for exceeding sales quotas and marketing
people rewarded for finding new customers? • Should both receive rewards that are based on some measure of customer
satisfaction? CRM can lead to all personnel thinking in terms of a company-wide effort to
satisfy customers.

45
CRM Success and Failure
CRM is often incorrectly viewed as a technology implementation driven by the IT department CRM should be viewed as a business strategy!
Examples of what CRM systems can do Volvo Cars of North America is using predictive
modeling to find new customers Financial companies are using CRM to move from
being one-time sellers to selling a range of financial products

Summary We know that “un-integrated” information systems result in
inefficencies …and a more costly sales order process Information is not shared in real-time so customers are asked to
repeat initial sales order information. As order is processed, errors in pricing, credit checks, and
invoicing also occur, presenting a poor company image to customers.
Integrated ERP software avoid errors because all customer data are stored in a central database ERP systems see sales as a set of related functions All these transactions are electronically linked Tracking an order’s status (partial shipments, returns, partial
payments, and so forth) is easily accomplished
