Lockheed Martin Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Academy
What is ERP?
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) refers to the integration of multiple business processes across an organization and encompasses areas such as accounting, project management, supply chain operations, sales, and procurement. Organizations rely on ERP software to link these processes within a unified system, allowing for improved data flow, integrity, and visibility, thereby enhancing efficiency and decision making across the entire organization.
