[AISWorld] List of corporate information systems

[Honglei Li]

I have been currently running a course Integrated Enterprise Systems with ERP for several years with SAP university alliance. You can basically go through all the basic business processes including accounting, fulfilment, procurement, production, inventory and warehouse management, and human resource management under the real SAP software environment with a case provided by SAP company. All students like that. They can also choose to take the SAP TERP 10 exam to get a consultant certificate which apparently improve their employability. 

You may take a look at the textbook.

I normally go through the business processes with many real company examples, such as how long does it take to get a customised car with the standardised production strategy, such as how Apple plan its production of new iWatch with all the current business processes, such as what kind of ERP functions a government organisation will implement.  It's very interesting and received very good feedbacks.

Of course, this is not a complete list of all apps on campus by any  means and UNCW is not a business corporation, but it's a pretty long list already.... I am sure this is similar at Syracuse.

They tend to focus on what they can see, saying for example that one of the most important systems is the company website. One can talk in generalities, but specific examples seem to stick much better. So, I was wondering if any one knew of an actual list of some large company’s information systems (at all levels, transaction processing, reporting, etc.). Interestingly, the Google searches I’ve tried turn up lots of MIS textbook chapters, but nothing more concrete.
