What is Enterprise Resource Planning - Distribution?

Enterprise resource planning (ERP) - distribution software is designed for companies in the distribution and logistics industries. Traditional distribution businesses focus on moving goods through a supply chain, and the distribution software market has developed products to meet these needs. The software solutions developed for ERP - distribution include functionality for supply chain management (SCM), distribution process management (DPM), and retail and commerce. ERP - distribution applications, like all ERP software, aim at full integration of management, staff, and equipment.

Enterprise Resource Planning - Distribution Business Drivers and Benefits

  • Improve the quality of service and support for customers, and build successful relationships with suppliers.
  • Reduce the time and costs associated with warranty and returns processing.
  • Improve communication and coordination among cross-functional teams, including representatives from logistics, production, purchasing, finance, marketing, and research and development (R&D).
  • Improve visibility of distribution capacity, inventory, and labor.
  • Reduce delivery time and transportation costs by using vehicle-routing analysis.
  • Help customers, suppliers, and employees by using e-commerce tools for self-service with online portals.

Enterprise Resource Planning - Distribution Risks

Organizations lacking ERP – distribution systems—or with poorly selected systems—often face a number of challenges they might otherwise have avoided:

  • inability to audit and allocate distribution costs properly
  • delayed inventory delivery time between suppliers, manufacturers, and retailers
  • lack of inventory visibility across the distribution network
