Abstract

Advanced organizations require implementing a Sustainable Enterprise Resource Planning (S-ERP) system in order to integrate all data, information, and processes across their entire extended value chain. A number of vendors such as Systemanalyse und Programmentwicklung (SAP), Microsoft, and Oracle have developed the system as a holistic solution to support sustainability initiatives. However, the organizations still face the problem in implementing the S-ERP system. There is a lack of a master plan, which shows the stages, dimensions, and steps to assist them to implement this system. In order to solve this issue a master plan has been developed for the implementation of S-ERP system that comprised of a roadmap, a framework, and guidelines. This study focuses on the development of the roadmap that shows the stages intended to implement the S-ERP system. To attain the research objective, this study employed a conceptual research method, which relies primarily on the literature for the development of the roadmap. Various research fields including sustainability, Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, and project management were examined. As a result, the roadmap of the S-ERP system implementation master plan was successfully developed by using the conceptual research method.
