“It seems like it would be a fairly simple task to be able to tell the CEO how many dollars’ worth of something we sell to a customer,” says Richard Scheitler, CIO, The Wonderful Company. “But when you have six, seven different ERPs, being able to do that simple reporting requires a Herculean effort.”
