Grant: Applied Research and Development Grants - Level 2

Saskatchewan Polytechnic

$75,000.00

Enterprise Resource Planning Platform for Small- to Medium-Sized Enterprises

FY 2022-23

Summary
The Digital Integration Centre of Excellence Technology Access Centre (DICE) at Saskatchewan Polytechnic (SP) and Levis Media Inc. (Levis) will collaborate on the research and development of an inventory management system that targets small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in numerous industries underserved by current systems. With Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software, an organization can manage their entire business. These products contain many modules such as accounting, human resources, inventory management, etc. This software comes with a huge price tag so Levis strives to create an affordable solution for SMEs. Inventory management software makes up a small piece of a complete ERP solution. By combining Levis' product with existing software from cloud-based vendors, like QuickBooks and by integrating Internet of Thinks (IoT) devices used for inventory management, they can create an affordable solution. This is possible if Levis can integrate IoT devices and other software products into their software quickly.
