What is ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning)?
Operations, IT, cybersecurity. A plain-English definition for Australian business owners.
ERP is integrated software that manages core business processes — finance, supply chain, manufacturing, HR, customer relationship management — in a single system.
For Australian SMEs, true ERP (NetSuite, SAP Business One, Microsoft Dynamics) typically becomes relevant past 50-100 staff; below that, integrated stacks of best-of-breed SaaS tools usually serve the need at lower cost and complexity.
In a connected back office this sits with the Operations hub, where Valont runs it support, cybersecurity and cloud systems for Australian SMEs as one team. The full definition set is on the glossary.
