The right implementation methodology will also help ensure that the ERP implementation fully addresses an organization＇s business goals and objectives. Modern ERP implementation methodology encourages and supports a progressive approach to the management for users of ERP systems. A company is constantly seeking better methods and models for decision supports in all kinds of decisions and developing/copying new products/markets that generate the growth of the company. On the other hand, a company creates efficient and effective operations that improve the return on investment, because ERP is always considered as an asset. This paper focuses on the interaction of culture in a company, business strategy, and organizational skills and balances the relationship among ERP methodology, ERP implementation, and the performance of the company. Considering the fact that different ERP systems use different methodologies, short descriptions of the most dominant brand name ERP are analyzed （Oracle Financials, PeopleSoft, and systems, applications, and products （SAP） implementation methodology）. Although all methodologies may look similar, the selection of a proper methodology is the most critical part in ERP investment. The focus of this paper is on the accelerated SAP methodology, also named as ASAP methodology, because it is the most used one on the worldwide market of ERP systems.展开更多

The systems include enterprise systems which are implemented to enhance institutional management given their emphasis on standardisation, streamlining, and integration of business operations. In this study, the authors have established that Kenyan universities have mainly implemented systems for finance and accounting, student admissions, examinations management, and library services. The authors have also established that there are no significant differences in information systems needs among Kenyan universities, but there are significant differences in strengths and weaknesses among the private and public universities in the capabilities of systems they have implemented. The authors have further established that despite fears especially on delays in projects implementation and system costs, Kenyan universities are in a position to implement enterprise systems to facilitate their operations. However, the universities need to allocate more funds to systems implementation if they have to successfully implement enterprise systems which generally require more resources than ordinary software applications.展开更多
