The world is experiencing the Fifth Disruptive Reordering, precipitated by Covid, shifting world powers, and fractured social systems. The disruptive world of 5.0, with operations and the world connected using sensors (IoT and IIoT), will put enormous pressure on information-poor enterprises, breaking their ability to adapt to changing conditions. Unfortunately, many current systems are outdated and unable to connect the functionality needed to remain competitive. Addressing pervasive change will determine business life cycles. Therefore, enterprises must adapt faster with greater precision by using accurate, real-time data gathered at the source. Contemporary Enterprise Resource Planning systems (ERP) serve this purpose. ERP is the heart of the information system, extending its relational capability throughout the neural network. These real-time, multi-sourced data feed processes and analytics to deploy and manage assets, from macro planning to micro execution. Affinity Systems LLC studied the history of failed ERP installs. The exact reasons repeat. Failure to understand the business requirements in context with ERP functionality. Failure to update systems. Inadequate due diligence. Lack of buy-in. Failure to empower the team. Failure to train the team and the user community. The inability to make the identified changes to operational processes. ERP 5.0 Structured Process is a Nine-Step method to develop and translate future-state strategic plans into actionable specifications, then evaluate, purchase, and install the software solutions. The key to success is a well-structured plan executed by trained, motivated, and empowered teams. Our companion book, "ACTION 5.0, Process Improvement for a Dwindling Planet," addresses associated process change issues.
