Abstract
Purpose: The aim of the article is to present the evolution of ERP systems and to identify the most important directions of ERP systems development. Design/methodology/approach: The paper uses the classical literature analysis method that consists in identifying the state of the research along with a critical reflection on it (critical literature review). Based on the analysis of the literature as well as the results of reports on ERP systems, suggestions for further development of ERP systems were formulated. Findings: The dynamic development of technology, increased competition in the IT market and changing needs of enterprises will result in the evolution of ERP systems. The article shows the directions of development of ERP systems (verticalization of ERP systems, cloud ERP, mobility, internal and external integration of ERP systems, automation in ERP systems, multimedia ERP systems, process ERP systems, minimizing the implementation time of ERP systems, increased popularity of Open Source ERP systems). Research limitations/implications: The pace and scale of technological change is altering almost every area of enterprise activity. It is difficult to unambiguously assess which of the changes in the IT area will have the greatest impact on the evolution of ERP systems. Directions of ERP systems development indicated in the article are only possible proposals of changes. Originality/value: The directions of development of ERP systems outlined in the article may constitute a premise for a discussion on their further evolution in the digital economy.
