Answer to Question 1

Organizations begin by determining the structure of the industry, followed by pursuing a competitive strategy. Next, they select an ERP vendor. Large organizations have realized that only SAP, Microsoft, and ORACLE can support the wide variety of processes they want to integrate. Once SAP is selected, organizations spend several months on a gap analysis identifying where their process expectations and SAP capabilities differ. Once the gap analysis is complete, the management crafts objectives and measures for each of the organization's processes.
