Abstract
With the rapid development of technology and the increasing transition of on-premise enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems to cloud-based ERP systems, the traditional ERP lifecycle needs to be reviewed. Cloud-based ERP systems are based on a different infrastructure than traditional on-premise systems. This research investigates how cloud ERP systems may potentially affect the ERP lifecycle, especially the ERP retirement phase. ERP retirement is the stage when the existing ERP needs to be replaced with another ERP system. This will be investigated through an in-depth case study at a cloud-based vendor in Norway, and via using the ERP lifecycle provided by Esteves & Pastor. Our results suggest that cloud-ERP systems may have longer ERP lifecycle timeframes than their on-premise counterparts in general, and a shorter ERP retirement phase in specific.
