Our research was oriented to ERP Implementation Rollout established for an production entity, based on an establishedproject developed during a period of two years. This article offers a perspective, for interested experts, showing how they can manage their activities, for the implementation of an ERP system, in Romania, based on agreed methodology used for rollout purposes.
