Please give your analysis and feedback in 2 paragraphs on the answers to the questions below.

  1. What opportunities are being missed when each little area (scheduling, supply management, marketing, and others) has its own “stove piped” data? (Provide some examples.)

If there is data missing for scheduling, Kelly’s Salon will lose customers. For example if Kelly does not have a supply management process she will waste profits into supplies that Kelly’s Salon might not need. Also, if Kelly lacks supply management process she could need supplies for daily operations that she might not be aware of.

  1. What business benefits will Kelly’s Salon realize if you implement an enterprise-wide system? Identify how Kelly as the manager will benefit from having additional information available.

I believe the most important benefit implemented by enterprise-wide system would be Kelly’s ERP system. She will be able to target areas where she is lacking through her set process. Also, Kelly will target her strategy for competitive advantage and will be able to compete with her rivals.

  1. What types of decisions that she makes as the manager would be improved if she had all this information in one place?

Kelly will be able to treat her customers and employees with a better perspective. Since she will know what is going on with her business, she will be able to make better decisions.

  1. Would it make the most sense to start with – a CRM, an SCM or an ERP system – for Kelly’s Salon and why. Keep in mind that additional systems and functionality could come later.

All of these are important, but I think Kelly should start with ERP since it will manage all business applications.
