Smart factory: E-business perspective of enhanced ERP in aircraft manufacturing industry

Purpose - Paper purposes and applies scenario planning methods to identify strategic planning issues and aspects of ERP technology for competitive advantage thereby giving researchers new future research agenda for smart-factory in vague of European vision of manufacturing excellence; in view of global economic recession. Design/methodology/approach - Scenario planning techniques coupled with ERP road-mapping is integrated for grand strategic planning of future ERP framework. Findings - Scenario techniques were applied for holistic analysis of aircraft industry enhanced ERP road mapping. Originality/value - A novel approach was inscribed for scenario planning. Literature and research methods were integrated for strategic continuous & discontinuous perspectives of scenario planning for disruptive innovation in future factories of aircraft industry.
