English to French Other Computers (general)

The idea—or should we say, dream—that there can be a single, integrated enterprise resource planning (ERP) software system that supports all an organization’s business activities is one that should be left to deteriorate and die, much like a decaying and forgotten industrial city. The goal of ERP solutions, and of the vendors who have tried to build these great wonders of computing, has always been a worthy one. Billions of dollars and countless hours have been invested into creating massive ERP solutions with footprints that continue to expand. But much like the forgotten foundations of ancient cities, these mega-software ERP solutions are a dying breed.
