Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cross-functional, integrated systems such as ERP require the company to standardize on a single language to ensure seamless integration of data, as data from different functional areas is stored in a common database. Locating all processes in the same geographical place or backshoring processes to the home country is not necessary for the implementation of integrated systems. Customizing product offerings is also not directly related to solving the problem of data isolation.
