Next Generation ERP: Beyond Theory, Where Is The How?

The buzz: “An examination of hundreds of businesses over 20 years of operations has shown us that rather than digging in their heels, successful companies…have a culture of continuous agility. In essence, they have “agility routines”" (Christopher Worley, www.entrepreneur.com/article/240705). The world has changed. Neither the old monolithic applications customized to meet yesterday’s business models nor generic, one-size-fits-all business solutions can power today’s digital organizations. Reality check: It's time to stop building the business application pyramid and start building tents instead. The experts speak. Paul Khanna, Deloitte: “If opportunity doesn’t knock, build a door” (Milton Berle). Matthew Riches, AgilityWorks: “Tell him he’s Pele and get him back on” (John Lambie, Partick Thistle manager). Bill Bowers, SAP: “Toto, I have a feeling we’re not in Kansas anymore” (Dorothy, Wizard of Oz, 1939 film). Join us for Business Applications: Moving from Pyramid To Tent.

The buzz: “Every second of every day, our senses bring in way too much data than we can possibly process in our brains. (Peter Diamandis, Chairman/CEO, X-Prize Foundation). In the Digital Business era, analytics has become as ubiquitous as content. We review multiple levels of information to help us make meaningful, insightful business decisions in real-time and at the point of need. But when we peel the covers off this mass of data, is it trusted and in a digestible form we can easily apply to improve business outcomes? The experts speak. James Rothwell, AgilityWorks: “They've done studies, you know. 60% of the time, it works every time” (Brian Fantana, Anchorman 2004 comedy film). Andy Steer, itelligence Group: “If you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always got” (Jessie Potter). Andy Bitterer, SAP: “f/8 and be there” (Arthur “Weegee” Fellig).

The buzz: “Artificial Intelligence, deep learning, machine learning?—?whatever you’re doing if you don’t understand it?—?learn it. Because otherwise you’re going to be a dinosaur within 3 years” (Mark Cuban).

The buzz: “A data swamp is a deteriorated data lake that is either inaccessible to its intended users or is providing little value” (en.wikipedia.org). Back in the day, businesses created a simple information lake to acquire, manage and access data in native, raw format. Then one lake became many. Welcome to the age of the information swamp, an unmanageable architecture of costly, complex lakes. Are you sinking or swimming in yours? It’s time to turn your data into the “new oil”. The experts speak. Fiona Critchley, Capgemini: “We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard” (John F. Kennedy). Harpreet Singh, Deloitte: “Let us make our future now, and let us make our dreams tomorrow's reality” (Malala Yousafzai). Tina Rosario, SAP: “Ideas are like rabbits.
