Answer 1

Cadbury had a successful experience by implementing ERP. Cadbury India was the first branch to implement ERP system .

-Earlier they were not having integrated process of function except finance. But after implementing ERP now their all processes like marketing, production, purchase, supply chain management and sales is integrated into one business process.

-Also all the manufacturing branches of Cadbury are also integrated now because of ERP.

-Cadbury also used bing bang approach of implementation which means implementing entirely in one go and not in phases.

-It started with one branch and then started decentralizing to all. This has saved a lot of time in implementation and was a good decision.

-It also helped the company to handle the issue of lack of resources for long time.

-ERP also helped the managers by making it convenient to work, make decisions , recording , storing and even combining the data and updating the data all at one go.

-ERP has also helped the company to build a strong feedback system which is helping in resolving the issues faster and even saves the cost of company.

- There are also new ways of handling the warehouses.
