Historically, ERP software has been uninteresting and stodgy, the playground of a few dominant on-premise players. Today, a variety of innovative vendors have taken hold in this market, pushing ERP into the cloud while attempting to pull business away from large companies like SAP and Oracle.
Some examples among many:
*FinancialForce announced a $50 million investment to focus specifically on ERP
*NetSuite revenue continues to grow, with projected 2014 revenues hitting nearly $550m
*Infor has staked a claim to design as a significant competitive differentiator
*Workday continues to develop its business around financials, as part of a long-term plan to pull business from SAP and Oracle
*Microsoft is pushing further into the cloud with its flagship Dynamics AX ERP software
Then, there is Epicor, a company with nearly $1 billion in revenue that serves mid-market ERP customers.

The World is Changing and The Future is definitely going to be quite different from the present. Ecologists are warning all that we are running out of natural resources.
The world as we know it was created by the Industrial Age and it is now crumbling before our very eyes. We grew up in this world listening to common sense: learn well to get into fine universities, to land a well paid, secure job with pension, and to live comfortably until you die.

Operational excellence as business strategy
“We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.”
Aristotle 384 BC-322 BC
The five forces model or Porter analysis was first suggested by Michael E. Porter, in a Harvard business review article as five competitive forces every business faces within it's industry no matter what industry it is in, which shape industry structure and affect profitability and industry returns over the longer term. This framework of industry and business analysis is very important to every strategist and business leader in setting their own business strategy in the pursuit of attaining a sustainable competitive advantage and achieving superior profitability within its industry.
