Abstract:

The case study describes the development of a business information system in the company which - after several years from the successful implementation of the ERP system of the world-known origin - had to decide to buy another ERP solution that would meet its requirements for covering a network branch abroad. The study shows how important it is during the selection of an information system and its supplier to use the long-term strategic plan as a basis and not to forget any important aspect. After several years this can mean the implementation of a new project and increasing the costs instead of effective development of the original solution and savings from the scope of purchasing another system.
