When the first modern enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems came to market in the early 1990s, and in the following 30+ years we have gone through quite a revolution. In this episode, 2 people that were there in the beginning, SAP’s Richard Howells and EAC’s Josh Greenbaum take a little trip in the past and a look to the future.

Josh has over 30 years of experience in the industry as a computer programmer, systems analyst, author, consultant, and industry analyst. Having helped pioneer coverage of the enterprise software market in the late 1980s, he moved to Europe in 1991 and worked as an industry analyst and as European correspondent for several tech publications. While based in Paris Josh began his coverage of the ERP space and wrote the first technical analysis of SAP’s R/3 for the US market. Josh founded Enterprise Applications Consulting in 1998 and has been a pioneering independent analyst and consultant ever since.

Richard Howells has been working in the supply chain management and manufacturing space for over 30 years.
