In the last few years, the term “ERP Solution” has taken the service and construction market by storm and has likely lead to you asking “what is an ERP solution” and, more importantly, “why should I care”?  In short, ERP stands for Enterprise Resource Planning and it describes any product that helps  you handle all functions of your business, including accounting, maintenance, job costing, payroll and human resources.
