Running Head: ERP SYSTEMENTERPRISE RESOURCE PLANNINGSYSTEM[Document subtitle]
ERP SYSTEMAbstract An enterprise resource planning system is defined as a set of modules of software which allow the organizations to share the data within the organization with the help of the database and the tools of management. The main motive is to provide access to data of the organization in order todevelop streamlined processes of the work. Further, the report will help in understanding the proposed enterprise architecture for the implementation of effective ERP system for the AUSPOST and TOLL. The TOGAF framework will be shown in the implementation of ERP system. Then the integration of ERP system will be given. Also, the integration of customers andsuppliers along with the integration of a system of customer relationship management and supplier relationship management will be shown in the report. Then the business analysis with the help of SWOT analysis and requirement analysis will help in getting the clear understanding of the proposed enterprise integration. 1

ERP SYSTEMIntroduction Enterprise resource planning is a procedure through which an organization can integrate and manage the important aspects of its business. The information system of the enterprise resource planning management incorporates various areas like planning, human resource, inventory, marketing, etc. (Basaez et al., 2014). The two companies i.e. AUSPOST and TOLL want to integrate the ERP after the merger. Both the companies are having an implementation of ERP individually, and now they want to develop a common ERP after their merger in order to increase the business value. It has been observed that AUSPOST is SAP-centered and TOLL is oracle-centered. Both the companies have similar systems of operating, databases, technology of customer management, business intelligence, products of security, etc. Therefore, 50 percent of the systems and products of IT are similar between both the companies. AUSPOST gets the support from IBM and TOLL gets the support from the Accenture. The companies use the ERP version which is highly customized. The companies don't require the project of duplication eradication. Further, the report will show the proposed architecture of enterprise with the important artifacts, integration of ERP system and the analysis of the business with the help of SWOT and requirement analysis. Proposed Enterprise Architecture To develop the effective enterprise resource planning, the TOGAF framework is used in order to propose the architecture of the enterprise. The TOGAF framework is divided into five phases which include the major and important artifacts. Further, the phases of TOGAF framework are explained (Chou et al., 2014):3
ERP SYSTEMPreliminary phase In this particular phase, the companies after the merger will design the scope of the architecture of the enterprise in order to determine that how much information they will gather and further how they will be maintained. The TOGAF framework allows the companies to use the approach of top-down. The companies can themselves decide that whether they want to use the approach of bottom-up in order to handle the management of application portfolio. This phase basically includes the scope.Phase AThe phase A of the TOGAF framework is Architecture Vision. In this phase, the work will be shifted from the organization of sponsors to the organization of architecture. The main aspects ofthis phase are the mission, strategy, vision and goals of the enterprise. The enterprise will get more detail about the stakeholders. This phase will also help in identifying the constraints which can impact the companies in a negative way. The companies will be able to find the value chain like which mode they would use in order to deliver goods and services after the merger. The phase of architecture vision will help in finding a solution to the concept like who will adopt the strategies and on whom the strategies will be imposed. This provides an orientation of high- levelto the solution. This will help in developing effective integration and implementation of the enterprise resource planning. Phase BThis phase is the Business Architecture. This phase will help in describing the base line for the architecture of the business. This phase includes the processes of business, structure of the organization, function of the business and the services of the business. This phase will also help 4
ERP SYSTEMin describing the diagrams, catalogs, etc. of an enterprise like Actor Catalog who are involved in the systems of IT like users. The catalog will include the location and the unit of the organization. The Role Catalog will provide the lists of the levels of authorization in an organization itself. The Function Catalog can also be used in order to find the capabilities of the company to know the governance level which is being applied. It includes the services of the business, services of the information system, etc. The Location Catalog will help in providing thelists of the various locations where the operations of the enterprise are being carried out in data centers. The Product Catalog will help in providing the process hierarchy, outputs, etc. This will be the organization in reporting, filtering and identifying the impact. It further includes processes, products, and events. The Matrix of business Interaction will help in identifying the relation between the functions of the business and the organization. The Diagram of Footprint will help in describing the connection between the goals of the business, units, services, functions, etc. The Diagram of Product Lifecycle will help in understanding the important entities of the organization. Phase CThis phase is the Data Architecture. This phase includes the Catalog of Data Component which will give the information related to the data entity, a component of logical data and physical data.The Matrix of Business Function will help in finding the relation between the entities of data andthe functions of the business within the organization. The Application Matrix will help in demonstrating the relation between the components of the application and the entities of data thatare being accessed by the organization. This will help in finding the level of duplication of data. The Diagram of Conceptual Data will help in identifying the relation between the entities of critical data within the organization. This method contains the simplified diagrams of UML 5
