Social ERP
GOAL
Boost the collaboration among business peers.

o Synchronization of workflows and information among the people of different teams/areas of the company and, in certain scenarios, even with customers, suppliers and other third parties. o Integrate the Business Processes between departments and with other companies to make them more efficient, at both, operational flow level and information sharing. o Tools as virtual boards, collaborative building documents, blogs to capture the tacit knowledge of the organization, Wikis for teams, polls to make shared decisions,

Social ERP
GOAL
Capture in real time the Information Stream from the Business Processes. o Facilitate the capture of the Business Stream, so the people know, in (almost) real time, the information flow related to the business processes. o Examples:
o Visualization and tracking of the activity stream of a team o project through tools as Yammer (Microsoft), Twitter, Chatter (Salesforce) , etc. o Mashup of information coming of heterogeneous sources not only from ERP o Crowd recommendation: as the I Like it of Facebook or the +1 of Google Plus. Business users can recommend to follow events that happen in the system. For instance, if an important customer post an order is marked with a +1 so it is more visible in the system.

Social ERP
GOAL
Get the best information

o Make easier the capture, register and access the information happening around the business processes. o Examples:
o Multi-device: Extend the access to the corporate information system beyond the typical workstation/laptop to alternative channels as smartphones, tablets, even industrial equipment where the information is created and consumed o Subscription to business events that happen in the system, as the Customer X is making an order above Y Euros. Using RSS technologies for example o Tagging: allow users to tag the information objects of the systems (master data, documents, transactions, etc.), so they are able to link and follow the business events while they happen (as worktags of Workday)
