Abstract

As banking is currently considered a non-typical area for ERP usage, the authors conducted a survey on anticipated benefits, potential disadvantages and implementation success associated with ERP adoption in banking. The results indicate that, despite a predominant usage of ERP systems in back-office areas, banks see ERP systems as a long-term strategic investment to support organizational effectiveness.
