Business EN ↓ 83 episodes

ERP systems run your business — but most of the advice out there is buried in jargon or sounds like a sales pitch. The ABCs of ERP & Beyond cuts through that. Hosted by Pete Nicholson and Nirav Shah, two ERP practitioners working in the trenches with manufacturing and distribution businesses, this podcast covers everything from go-live survival to planning, scheduling, inventory, finance, and the tech that ties it all together. No fluff. No vendor spin. Just practical insight you can actually use.
