1. Project background
The paper mainly showcases on the ERP system development within an organization
named “Blach Construction Company” which generally assist in giving both construction
management services as well as commercial building services. Currently, the company utilizes

experiences a lot of problems as well as issues including inconsistency in data entry, high
training cost, lack of proper security and high chance of data duplication. In order to mitigate the
problems that the Blach construction company uses, it is very much necessary to implement ERP
system. The implementation of ERP system generally helps in eliminating repetitive procedures
which greatly helps in minimizing the need of entering data manually within the system. In

procedures which makes it much easier as well as efficient for the organization to collect data.

service to the customers as well as the clients.
