Enterprise resource planning (ERP) integration:
Enterprise resource planning (ERP) applications are often seen as an effective route to business integration. However, a lot of ERP implementations have been inward focused - that is emphasizing cost reductions, technology and process improvements versus customers and suppliers. Hence, there is a shift away from reliance on a single enterprise application toward the integration of best of breed applications provided by different vendors. The challenge is in how to do it most effectively.
Customer relationship management (CRM) solutions help to consolidate all customer data so that a unified view of customers is obtained. Customer information, which exists in various systems, can be captured through different business processes, touch points and channels. It is imperative that all these systems are integrated and EAI plays a very key role in achieving this objective.
Supply chain integration the key to an effective supply chain is tight integration of the different businesses that make it up. Distributors, retailers, producers, shippers etc all need accurate information. The IT systems that they use are often not uniform and are not designed to work together. Integrating these systems is vital to reducing costs and improving turnaround.

Scrapping all legacy systems and building a new total structure may be beyond the resources of most organizations.
