The ERP Minute Episode 51: August 16, 2022

Sage announced the availability of Sage Field Operations with Sage Intacct Construction. The integration combines Sage’s global construction management application with its native-cloud accounting solution to give service-providing construction companies a specialized tool to manage the entire work order life cycle. Sage Field Operations will continue to expand Sage’s holding in the construction field. Filling this functionality gap will give Sage Intacct a key component in this overall construction offering that will help it position even more competitively against other construction applications. ERP vendors continue to acquire clients in recent weeks, adding to their already extensive customer bases. Some of the acquisitions include Tovala’s selection of Oracle NetSuite to amplify its meal subscription service, Zeelandia’s increased efficiency with Infor Coleman AI, Nordisk Film’s adoption of Qlik Cloud Analytics, and First PREMIER Bank’s choice to implement UKG. ECI Software Solutions acquired Data Inventions, the maker of a data connectivity and manufacturing intelligence platform called Alora, and Lojic, a maker of a customizable visualization and data analytics solution, for their machine and business intelligence platforms for manufacturers. A research paper from 5G Americas has highlighted that complex ERP-related business process use cases often require data delivery within a specified time duration with a high degree of guaranteed reliability. To facilitate gains in 5G wireless cellular standards and networks to address new enterprise and industrial use cases, modern 5G networks are accelerating the introduction of technologies such as ultra-reliable low latency communication (URLLC) and time-sensitive networking (TSN) support.

Hi and welcome to episode 51 of The ERP Minute. I am your host, Rebekah McCabe.

Last week, Sage announced the availability of Sage Field Operations with Sage Intacct Construction. The integration combines Sage’s global construction management application with its native-cloud accounting solution to give service-providing construction companies a specialized tool to manage the entire work order life cycle. Sage Field Operations will continue to expand Sage’s holding in the construction field. Filling this functionality gap will give Sage Intacct a key component in this overall construction offering that will help it position even more competitively against other construction applications.

Unsurprisingly, ERP vendors continue to acquire clients in recent weeks, adding to their already extensive customer bases. Some of the acquisitions include Tovala’s selection of Oracle NetSuite to amplify its meal subscription service, Zeelandia’s increased efficiency with Infor Coleman AI, Nordisk Film’s adoption of Qlik Cloud Analytics, and First PREMIER Bank’s choice to implement UKG.

Despite global economic changes, companies continue to purchase software to optimize their business operations. ERP software purchases are occurring across industries, demonstrating the clear demand for innovative solutions, regardless of business model or their offerings.

In other news, ECI Software Solutions acquired Data Inventions, the maker of a data connectivity and manufacturing intelligence platform called Alora, and Lojic, a maker of a customizable visualization and data analytics solution, for their machine and business intelligence platforms for manufacturers.

ECI continues to expand its hold in the ERP space, acquiring specialized solutions to keep up with the demands of its legacy customer base.

Finally, a research paper from 5G Americas has highlighted that complex ERP-related business process use cases often require data delivery within a specified time duration with a high degree of guaranteed reliability. To facilitate gains in 5G wireless cellular standards and networks to address new enterprise and industrial use cases, modern 5G networks are accelerating the introduction of technologies such as ultra-reliable low latency communication (URLLC) and time-sensitive networking (TSN) support.

It is always interesting to see how advancements being used every day for mobile internet usage can be utilized to advance business operations at a high level. We will likely continue to see 5G technology provide unique solutions to businesses looking to automate their processes.
