An organization consists of various departments like Marketing, Finance,
Operations Management, Human Resource and IT. So no matter what the size of the
company, it becomes difficult for a company to unify or manages its data.
Therefore all companies prefer ERP systems to manage
their day-to-day activities to follow the business status comfortably and the
same goes for the hospitality, retail, and manufacturing industry. For any
business in hospitality, retail, and manufacturing, be it bar services, some
steel industries or some food court, maintaining all becomes critically
important if they want to boost their profits. In the below context, we will
discuss how ERP benefits the hospitality, retail, and manufacturing industry.
ERP Benefits
1. Real-Time Data
Organization data is dynamic, it varies every day and every company
needs a real-time insight on their data so that any change will be reflected
uniformly across all the units of an organization.
ERP can solve this problem as ERP is all about information. It explores
and scatters real-time information to all the relevant units, leaving no scope
for error or delay.
2) Point of Sale System
A point-of-sale (POS) terminal can be connected to other terminals and a
server at another location. It can be expanded with handheld devices wirelessly
linked to the remote area. You can trace several operations in beneficial ways
and customize it as your requirements vary over time.
3) Customer management
ERP plays a significant role in customer management and maintenance. You
can order the purchase history of customers and choose the most productive
ones, offering them reward points or gift vouchers. The customer history gives
you an idea of customer practices that enables you to promote accordingly. ERP also
assists you to resolve customer complaints promptly.
4. Employee Management
Employee management is the main advantage of using ERP in any
industry. Apart from the challenges of maintaining data of several employees in
any industry, the geographical restrictions make it more difficult.
ERP helps in the management of employees through an integrated system.
Primary employee details are saved in the ERP system, along with real-time
information like shift timings, work hours, their work, etc. All of this helps
in managing the employees more efficiently and making interaction with them
easier.
5. Inventory Management
ERP saves the data of individual product details so that we can
know exactly what is presently in your inventory and which items are out of stock
or going to be out of stock. It also traces the expiry date, temperature, etc.
and helps in demand forecasting.
