Large construction companies all over the world are starting to implement Enterprise Resource Planning Systems, known as ERPs. These systems help to effectively manage and use resources more efficiently.

Essentially there are two parts of an ERP: data management and workflow management. Both of these are equally as important functionalities and will allow you to monitor your business. Allowing an ERP to be managed over a cloud database creates the opportunity to access data from anywhere, in real time.
