Early MRPII (ERP) implementation of the "paradox"
The construction of enterprise information management information system is the focus of the building also MRPII (ERP) system implementation. In accordance with the core idea of ERP implementation of ERP systems to the enterprise management level will bring about a revolutionary upgrade, but the early MRPII (ERP) implementation of the outcome was not satisfactory, and some can be said to have failed.
According to the United States, a survey throughout the 80 years, U.S. companies in information technology (Information Technology, or IT) applications, has invested 1 trillion. Despite the huge investment, but the productivity of white-collar workers throughout the 80's has not changed substantially. In 1975-1985 the 10-year period, the number of blue-collar workers decreased by 6%, real output increased by 15%, on the surface of labor productivity increased by 21%. But in this same period, the number of white-collar workers increased by 21%, and 15% compared to the real output growth, productivity fell by 6%. These investments do not achieve the desired goals. Economists call it "productivity paradox", but many companies think that they are in the information technology investments fall into the "black hole."
MRPII software from overseas into India, India's enterprises in the application of MRPII systems has invested many hundreds of million rupees but the application success rate is not high, to achieve the desired goal is few.
As the number of enterprises in the application of information technology is difficult to achieve the desired goals, some companies and research institutions began to carry out such issues. The most famous is the MIT research since 1984, until 1991 is finally coming to the end of one called the "90's management" studies, the study investigated the IT applications the impact of various agencies, researchers found that: the effectiveness of the enterprise has not been applied mostly by hand using a computer simulation of information systems business processes, and successful enterprises in the application of IT in the way while taking into account the characteristics of computerized management, and manual business processes done a lot of changes.
