This paper emphasizes the prolific effects of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) implementation in a large cosmetics company by means of increased technological discipline, and reduced consumption of materials, packaging and energy, while establishing an efficient organization of production, in direct terms of productive staff and capacity utilization. The authors also present in this article their own plans for a promising Enterprise Resource Planning Process Control Systems (ERP-PCS) connection. PCS systems log valuable information on technology and business processes (utilization of raw materials, wrappings, accomplished production, etc.), founded on data monitoring of the production automation equipment: electronic flow meters, electronic scales, sensors and transducers, digital countdown and supplementary specific devices. This connection, together with ERP systems’ dedicated modules, could determine real time data retrieval on materials, packaging, energy consumption and outputs, thus providing valuable information to the company managers for resourceful decision making processes.
