Abstract

We live in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (I4.0), where physical development has slowed down, and digital development takes most of its place. If we look at our own lives, we see that we are using digital technologies almost every part of our life already. If we use its potential, we can highly increase our performance and efficiency. Nowadays, every part of a modern business is controlled by an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, which needs a huge variety of digital devices. Most of the companies use their system access points as stationary machines or some mobile devices for higher-ranking employees. In this paper, we give an example of what will happen if every company worker has access to the system through mobile devices, where we consider the Return on Investment based on standard data that can be collected in every company.
