ABOUT KNIGHT VISION

The new Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, Knight Vision, will strengthen financial stewardship and provide a single source of data to inform strategic decision making in a rapidly changing world. The state of the art cloud system will optimize cost structure and modernize administrative models to support effective service delivery to stakeholders.

An Enterprise Resource Planning system is a type of information technology (IT) system that supports business functions, with the capability of integrating each element within the supply chain (procurement, inventory, manufacturing, distribution, employee relations, payroll, sales, customer service, support, etc.). ERP systems are used in many industries to help leaders gain real time insight into the well-being of their operations. A successful ERP implementation and adoption is meant to lead to improved efficiency, reduced costs, better communication, faster transactions and data availability and increased overall performance.
