Good manufacturing practice (GMP) is a system designed to ensure that products are consistently manufactured and controlled according to quality standards. It was developed to minimise the risks associated with any pharmaceutical production that cannot be avoided by testing the product.

ERP systems in production are usually used to map and optimise processes with large key figures. No less relevant, but much more complex, are the requirements that make-to-order manufacturers have for software.

Business Process Management - BMP for short - is basically nothing more than process management. Its tasks were often integrated as tools in ERP systems. To the frustration of users. After all, BMP is more of a concept than a tool for monitoring business processes.
Read MoreProcess optimisation in the ERP solution: Always a new system necessary?
Particularly with ERP systems that have been in use for a long time, it becomes apparent over time that some work processes still need to be improved. However, a new system is not necessarily required for process optimisation. The process analysis can be carried out independently of the ERP system anyway. The challenge - as is so often the case - lies in the implementation. The data structures in particular play a major role in process optimisation - and these are ultimately the heart of every ERP system. But how can these be changed and improved in such a way that the necessary process optimisation can be implemented?
