HW #10

One thing I had learned this year that really had caught my eye is the importance of software to a company. Without software today, almost all companies would not be able to survive. Software can hold vital information for the company that makes the processes within the company run more efficiently. An example of a product like this is Arigo, it handles retail information that allows the supply chain to run smoothly. One system in particular that I found most interesting is the enterprise resource planning system.

The enterprise resource planning system collects sources and information from the company and helps plan and manage them better. Software such as this organizes all the company's information into the most effecient way possible. Benefits to this can be organization flexibility, which allows the company to choose between which tasks they want to complete, this can make the planning process much easier. Another benefit is the quality and efficiency it brings to the company, it makes the products better because it allows the company to take it's time producing a quality product in an organized timely manner.

The importance of this software is unlimited, and in this generation software is only improving rapidly. Looking into the future companies will be able to work in the most efficient manner possible creating a higher sucess rate for companies. Technology is unlimited making posibilities endless in the near future for companies.

I totally agree with Zach on this one. Software is a very important aspect to a company. Like Zach stated “Software can hold vital information for the company that makes the processes within the company run more efficiently”. This is very true; any company that ships, or collects information from a buyer uses some type of software that helps them organize their current information. Any software that helps your company more organized and run more smoothly is great. This is the most interesting system in the enterprise resource planning system like Zach stated.
While the world is changing around us technology wise, software is changing rapidly as well. New software is created everyday to help company and their workers run more smoothly. “Technology is unlimited making possibilities endless in the near future for companies”.
