Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) began with early attempts at calculating machines in the 1940’s. In the 1960s, Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) was born from a joint effort between J.I. Case, the manufacturer of tractors and other construction machinery, and partner IBM. ERP is defined as the ability to deliver an integrated suite of business applications using tools to cover broad and deep operational end-to-end processes, such as those found in finance, HR, distribution, manufacturing, service and the supply chain. A few benefits of ERP are; improve the decision-making process, scenario planning, modularity, greater control and traceability, and automation of tasks. Blockchain may be seen as a competitor to ERP. Blockchain creates trust in the supply chain. Aren't all business transactions the supply chain?
