ERP II systems to support dynamic, reconfigurable and agile Virtual Enterprises
by Stavros T. Ponis, Athanasios C. Spanos
International Journal of Applied Systemic Studies (IJASS), Vol. 2, No. 3, 2009

Abstract: The Virtual Enterprises (VE) approach and a holistic view the supply chain come into play in the modern globalised competitive markets. A company is as reliable as the weakest link in its chain. An unhampered product and information flow and backtracking among the parties are required. The current wave of enterprise systems is unable to satisfy the above, raising the need for new system architectures and functionalities. The authors believe that the referred approach is the enhancement of the ERP functionality with web and middleware technologies, thus forming the ERP II. The ERP II, combined with SOA concepts, can thriftily realise the VE paradigm.
