Conclusion and Recommendations


Majority of Construction Companies have some knowhow about the ERP systems Not feasible for the small contracting firms to invest their potential on such a mega-system implementation of ERP systems should be started with the large contracting organizations and then gradually move down Training should be started from the top management and then move down to middle and lower management The ERP software vendors must work with the professional in the construction industry to developed more customized solutions for the contracting firms
