It sometimes seems there are as many ways to tax coffee as there are varieties of coffee drinks — and anyone who’s been to a Starbucks knows that’s a lot. Taxability can be affected by the temperature of the coffee, and whether it’s consumed on premises or sold to go.

At one point or another, you probably have or will ask yourself, “Should I invest in an industry-specific ERP solution, or in a flexible, “generic” ERP solution?” You’re not alone. In fact, this debate has been raging for decades. But as we usher in a new era of technological innovation, Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solutions have morphed into what Gartner has dubbed “Postmodern ERP.” Since ERP solutions and strategies have changed, it’s time to change the industry-specific vs. generic ERP debate as well.
The term “Postmodernism” is widely used to describe cultural changes to established structures and belief systems, often a direct retaliation against what is considered to be “modern” or the “modernist” movement that precedes the postmodernist movement. Originally, Gartner referred to this movement as, “the devolution of modern ERP,” but ultimately recognized the similarities between this “devolution” and the postmodern art movement. Both art and technology, and thus ERP, are exercises in and expressions of human imagination.
