Subject: Implementation of the ERP System in H&B Private Limited Company
Dear Sir,
I am pleased to attach a thorough research proposal for the proposal to install an ERP system in a manufacturing warehouse called H&B Private Limited.
This research proposal was generated for several reasons that appear to be problematic for the growth and productivity of companies using current warehouses based on manual systems, which are more time consuming, ineffective and less beneficial for business.
Installation of the ERP system will surely provide the warehouse with a number of benefits to control its inventory, which will provide wide-ranging requirements for tracking production and will better or more enhanced control on the quality management.
The system setup fee is $1,800,000 and involves database management system costs, software costs, and human resource and infrastructure costs, implementation, training as well as maintenance costs.
Successful and proper installation of the ERP system in the organization will provide them with product tracking capabilities, automated collection of data, advanced planning along with scheduling. If company need more details and would like to discuss any information regarding the whole project, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Yours sincerely,
XYZ
Project manager

Introduction
H&B Private Limited is a manufacturing plus a large packaging firm opened in 2015. H&B Private Limited is located in Campbell Town. It has grown very fast in the past three years. H&B Private Limited mainly deal with the production along with packaging of a small number of cosmetic creams, cosmetic injections. As H&B thrive, more suppliers and affiliates have increased customer and production efforts.
Vision and Mission: Today they are dealing with a large number of beauty products; they are beginning to accept orders from China and other overseas. Technological advances within the organization are urgently needed. ERP systems can provide superior facilities related to the production, quality furthermore for the data collection.
Internal and external operating environments
All organizations need to analyze external factors in their environment which may affect their all business operations and functions. Most of these factors are factors beyond the organization's control. PEST analysis is the most important tools for identifying external factors that capture political, economic, social and technological issues (Boltena and Gomez, 2012).
Political factors: Political aspects include aspects of government intervention in specific sectors or companies. This is basically a political climate in which companies must strive to achieve stability and goals in a good way in the sector under the business operations. This political aspect includes tax politics, and the government has decided to have several financial implications for the company, including import and export controls, and another point that can bring profits to the company's growth. In Australia, all manufacturing firms are affected by a variety of political factors, for example as trade policies, grants, funding, and initiatives.
Economic factors: As compared with the Australian income level, prices of real estate are usually high, which has created huge demand for real estate. In fact, in some major cities, this demand is so high that it firmly believes that rent prices are rising and buying any buy-in to block a potentially profitable real estate market. At the same time, population growth and income increase, accommodation demand is now leaving supply, so that prices continue to rise.
Social factors: Social tendencies determine work patterns in addition to attitudes, consumer attempts and preferences, moreover the definite types, forms, with quantities of product or service needs. Listening to social tendencies can take a place in his services and products, thus changing customer expectations. Social factors that influence an organization can be psychology demographics, and lifestyle, consumer perceptions of brands, products or services, consumer buying behavior, public relations and advertising, ethnicity, society, religious inflorescences, and so on.
Technology: Driving rapid or quick change in the technology through innovation. Internet communicators have eliminated many middlemen. Technological change has changed the success factors of the organization. If companies still use manual systems in their organizations in this technology age, they will not be able to gain a competitive advantage.
With help of SWOT analysis we will explain the internal operating environments within the company. At the same time it will focus more on the external threats and opportunities in the company's work environment (Boltena and Gomez, 2012).
Strengths:

Relationship: Company has established a good relationship with its customers and suppliers, which has enabled the company to thrive and attract potential clients.
Location - Location is also one of the advantages of this company. Because it is located in Campbelltown Industrial Zone, where there are many logistics warehouses, you can contact other suppliers.
Weakness:
New entry into the market: Since the organization is only 3 years old. Many companies have enjoyed a high reputation in the market for decades. Organizations need to build their reputation through the installation of information systems to provide better service to suppliers and customers.
Opportunities
Product expansion: Company handles the manufacture of a few beauty products. In the next few years, company will also increase their services and products.

It can be extended in different countries by providing better services and products to all current consumers moreover through continuous business success.
Threats
Competition: Competition is the biggest threats facing almost all organizations. The fierce competition in the manufacturing is likely to be an obstacle to organizational success.
Government regulatory companies have become global by working in diverse countries. Changes in government rules and regulations in the import as well as export moreover loans and taxes can be a threat to companies (Karim, 2016).
Problem/opportunity for IS/IT
H&B Private Limited Company is involved in the manufacturing and packaging process. They use manual systems to process data collection for inventory and import and export products.
