Enterprise systems are large-scale application software packages that support business processes, information flows, reporting, and data analytics in complex organisations. This unit is designed to give students a foundation of enterprise systems.
This unit explores the selection, design, implementation and management of enterprise IT solutions and their fit with the business. The focus is on Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Supply Chain Management (SCM), Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Human Resource Management (HRM) and Business Analytics.
Students learn frameworks and strategies for infrastructure management, system administration, data/information architecture, content management, legacy system integration, system consolidation and IT investment analysis. These topics are addressed both within and beyond the organisation, with attention paid to managing risk and security within audit and compliance standards.
The unit utilises a combination of practical sessions with an Enterprise System, such as Technology One, and analyses based on readings of case studies to explore the long-term effects of strategic implementation decisions. The unit explores the emergence and implications of cloud-based Enterprise Systems, and the part that Enterprise Systems play in an organisation's broader information infrastructure. This course is therefore viewed as a combination of business management practice and technology.

This unit will be co-taught with 11366 Enterprise Systems (UG).
