The benefits companies expect from their ERP systems often occur over a period of time rather than occurring immediately. Accordingly many companies believe that their ERP journey is on going. While ERP systems provide some benefits to all companies, some companies achieve more benefits than others. Researchers and analysts explain these differing benefits as a result of companies being at different stages of their ERP system journey or ERP maturity.
