Answer to Question 1

There are many potential benefits related to integrating all of an organization's systems in one standard package. First, the overall cost of running the systems should decrease if the ERP system is installed properly. Secondly, there should be new efficiencies discovered in the ability to share data across departmental boundaries in real-time. This data should also be more timely and accurate than before and therefore should help users make better decisions. Standardizing all the processes in the organization should also make it easier to make changes in the future and to train users.
