Not all ERP Implementations are equal, 2006-06-29
As a professional who works with enterprise systems that must integrate with ERP systems, I found this book very helpful. The author succinctly defines what the ERP system should be doing for the business and provides a framework to to measure whether the implementation is achieving the desired result.

A great resource for moving towards world class manufacturing, 2005-09-19
This is an excellent book for understanding what a great ERP looks like and how to get there. It is a very easy read - mixing actual business cases with theory but it does not get bogged down in technical descriptions. It is a "soup to nuts" book on the entire Sales&Operations planning process.
