The fusion of ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) and e-commerce technologies is revolutionizing the very fabric of business operations. In a world where adaptability is the currency of success, the synergy between these two pillars of modern business infrastructure has become a defining factor. Recent research conducted by Deloitte Digital, drawing insights from a comprehensive survey encompassing 530 B2B organizations, has unearthed compelling data that sheds light on this transformative journey.
