Olympics is considered to be a pinnacle of sport.Olympics defines the careers of many sportspersons.New records are made new milestones are achieved and some really big defining movements of sportsman career are also achieved.India which is predominantly a cricket crazy nation never had the success in olympics.The nation was satisfied with 1 medal.There was no such coverage ,no build up etc.But a lightening like thunder came in 2008 where India won 3 medals which was beyond expectations of nation.This saw new heores arise in terms of Sushil,Vijender and Abhinav.They got accolades from every nook and corner possible.

IT outsourcing is one of the pillars of Indian economy.Though it contributes only 10% to Indian economy.IT growth should be thanked to  India's telecommunication network.We should be happy to know that India is  the 3 rd largest in the world on the basis of its customer base and it has one of the lowest tariffs in the world enabled by the hyper-competition in its market. The handset industry in India has been an attractive destination for the global mobile phone manufacturers from the very start. Mobile phones in India  serve the growing communication needs.Nokia was one of the latest entrant and it created trust among people or so to say ”Connected people”.But now the connection is becoming weak  or so to say it is “Disconnecting people”. Nokia’s downfall is a classic case  of market leaders  downfall.Nokia entered very early into the Indian market.It has  delivered some really big blockbuster models like recharge phone Nokia 1100,Nokia xpressmusic and Nokia C5-03.

Now question comes should every organization go for ERP?Organizations think that our business is not doing well lets go for ERP?Our records are too much paper work is more so lets go for ERP?Whatever may be the reason ERP implementation cannot be a solution.One should understand that above mentioned are problems in the process so if you go for ERP implementation it will just automate the process but not change the existing  process .Above questions nee
