Among ERP trends, one stands out that we believe is here to stay: tailored ERP systems built specifically for different types of manufacturers.

Among ERP trends, none seems to be more intriguing than the thought of a “self-driving” ERP. Like an autonomous vehicle or a self-driving car, an autonomous ERP would simply run itself. The vision is to have a system so smart it can handle supply chain needs automatically, monitor systems, control scheduling, run predictive maintenance, bill customers, and conduct quality control.

ERP trends have been an integral part of this journey. Digital transformation fundamentally changes how manufacturers operate and deliver value to customers. It involves a cultural shift that requires organizations to continually challenge the status quo, experiment, and get comfortable taking risks.

At the same time, artificial intelligence (AI) tools are being used more often in the business world. It’s difficult to predict precisely how 2024 ERP trends will develop, but there is no doubt it will be an exciting year for business owners.

If 2021 was a year of transition, we can expect this trend to continue into 2022. The global pandemic still stubbornly hangs on and there isn’t a clear end in sight. Organizations and industries must continue to adapt to fast-paced change and uncertainty in the market. To accomplish this goal, their digital transformation strategy must be able to keep pace.
