Your company is currently working in Assumed Domain for 2 years. For a new, young company, the competition in the market is very high. Therefore, the Board of Director has decided to apply Business Intelligence to improve the company business process by making better decisions. The Board of Directors assigns a small group including you in Research Development Department to study business intelligence to apply for the company in the coming years. You need to research about business processes and decision support processes in the company and identify the types of data (unstructured, semistructured or structured) generated by these processes with examples. You also need to research about current software used in the business process or decision support process and evaluate these usages (benefits and drawbacks). Next you need to understand the types of support for decisionmaking at different levels (operational, tactical and strategic) within the company and study which business intelligence features can help on that types of support. Study the information systems or technologies (of BI) can be used in this case, compare and contrast them to conclude which should be used. Your group needs to present the research results to the board in a presentation of 30 minutes.

So what exactly is ERP? ERP, abbreviated by Enterprise Resource Planning - is understood as the Enterprise Resource Planning System Simply understanding, ERP is the system used to plan resources in an enterprise or organization This system helps integrate the common functions of the organization or business into the same system instead of having to use single software For example, instead of using individual software such as financial software - accounting, HR management software, production management software, salary management, CRM software and data not available cohesion and inheritance, the ERP system will integrate all on a single software and the data will be inherited, linked together Figure 14:Enterprise Resource Planning ERP characteristics: ERP systems are database-based on the same system Instead of a number of independent databases with endless data warehouses that are not connected to ERP systems that connect data With a secure and centralized data store, everyone in the organization can be confident that the data is accurate, up-to-date and complete Data integrity is ensured for all tasks performed throughout the organization, from quarterly financial statements to single outstanding receivables reports The benefits that ERP brings to businesses: HNC/HND Computing 24 Downloaded by Nguyen Minh Duc (FGW HCM) (ducnmgcs200781@fpt.edu.vn) lOMoARcPSD|10228358 Information is shared, focused, reliable and instant ERP system: is a model with a hierarchical data structure, including subsystems and modules These components are closely linked to each other And so the information is inherited from each other It not only collects and processes large volumes of daily transactions, but also quickly builds complex analyzes and diverse reports All information of the organization is declared and censored through many departments, departments and many people Like an internal control system on the same ERP application Help managers get fast, timely and reliable management information Since then make timely decisions Financial accounting module group of ERP system Help limit errors that employees often make in manual accounting Real-time information, increase production efficiency ERP application helps HR to streamline HR management and payroll processes, reduce management costs as well as limit errors and frauds in the payroll system ERP systems often require companies to define clear processes to help decentralize and assign tasks clearly Limit duplication of work Quality inspection, project management Real-time information, increase production efficiency ERP application helps HR to streamline HR management and payroll processes, reduce management costs as well as limit errors and frauds in the payroll system ERP systems often require companies to define clear processes to help decentralize and assign tasks clearly Limit duplication of work Quality inspection, project management Effective personnel management, clear process, eliminating duplication of work Disadvantages of software ERP Large investment costs Currently the majority of foreign ERP software is implemented by Vietnamese companies And it costs about several million USD for about 50 users (users) Software written by Vietnamese companies ranges from several hundred million to several billion VND The price depends on the number of users and the agreements that come with it During the ERP application process, there are additional costs incurred For example, software is upgraded to newer technology Enterprises must upgrade hardware, operating and other related software for compatibility Extended deployment time HNC/HND Computing 25 Downloaded by Nguyen Minh Duc (FGW HCM) (ducnmgcs200781@fpt.edu.vn) lOMoARcPSD|10228358 Going through many stages and usually lasts from to years Large corporations deploy subsidiaries that last up to years or more The level of ERP application in practice is also at a relative level due to the barrier of "culture" in each business Some organizations have to use multiple ERP software in parallel to get the right choice It takes time to benefit from ERP HNC/HND Computing 26 Downloaded by Nguyen Minh Duc (FGW HCM)
