Accordingly, the workshop covered analysis and evaluations of the practical benefits of ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) such as management cost savings, increased mobility in the control of capital and human resources as well as support in timely decision making by leaders and how to transform from local into world-wide class standards.

Addressing the workshop, Yangon Region Minister of Electric Power and Industry Nyan Tun Oo stressed the importance of enterprise management innovation in the country, especially in the context of growing international integration.

The workshop was attended by the Union of Myanmar Federation of Chambers of Commerce and Industry (UMFCCI), representatives of Vietnam Embassy in Myanmar and more than 200 large enterprises of Myanmar.
