Digital technologies have been integrated into the business process of organizations so as to streamline operations and adopt to changing market demands. This transformation is centered on the choice and execution of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, which is pivot for integrated business management. ERP systems enable organizations to optimize resources, improve management reporting as well as support decision making by providing real time insights of core processes. This abstract suggests the deep connection with process digitalization and ERP selection for converging process of operational excellence. Having more than 22 years of experiences in ERP system implementation across different sectors (water management, wastewater treatment and ports logistics) and having led the implementation of Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics solutions, I will draws some of lessons learnt. Not only have these implementations streamlined the business processes but they have also given organizations reliable data story for the management reporting. Accurate and timely reports are crucial to decision making and planning to make an effective response to challenges and pressures in a competitive environment. This experience demonstrates how carefully crafted selection of ERP can make digitalization worthwhile. The broad objective of this paper is to showcase how a right ERP system implemented correctly into the business processes leads to resource optimization and increased efficiency. A good management reporting guarantees that the reporting is accurate and actionable therefore companies can be able to achieve better visibility on operations and performance which eventually leads to better performance and long term sustainability. The findings of this dissertation will constitute a starting point for organizations aiming to leverage process digitalization and utilize ERP solution in striving towards increased operational capabilities and resilience in face of constantly changing business environment.
