Abstract

This research examines the important relationship of digital transformation and enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems in the context of the Indian manufacturing sector. This research applies a case study approach coupled with quantitative correlation analysis to uncover the key enabling factors that underpin successful ERP systems adoption. These enabling factors include alignment with business goals, technological readiness, employee participation, and active support from top management. The study also examines some of the specific contextual problems which are peculiar to India such as, scanty resources, overly extensive customizability, and slow acceptance of change. The findings provide profound insight into the use of ERP systems in enhancing organizational decision making, operational efficiency, and enduring competitiveness. The study emphasizes the importance of ERP in building an Indian digital manufacturing ecosystem and makes concrete recommendations for policy makers and business leaders.
