For a long time, many people have been predicting the demise of ERP, and while I share those sentiments, a demise can take many forms. The one we all understand well is the crash-and-burn variety, but that’s not the only and perhaps not even the predominant approach. The crash is at best the final step. Humpty Dumpty must have teetered and lost his balance, but all that got recorded was the fall and crash. The truth might be more interesting. For instance, rather than disappearing all at once, I’ve been writing about ERP’s decline as a movement, one application at a time.
