3. Application to KTF Case In the view of cooperation and collaboration of needs, it has been increased among stakeholders for improving the process' efficiencies. Two main approaches are found for the solution. These approaches are increasing level of collaboration in members of supply chain team of KTF, process of ERP implementation is needed. SAP is the most suitable option and chance for presenting the needs of a businesses. However, the provided solution is very expensive in short run but in long run it is cost effective. It requires the investment of one million for adoption of ERP system which is incorporation in the KTF. But, in terms of low cost and price solutions, management preferences, platform of web 2.0, which is suggested for incorporation in the processes of communication for enhancing communication with stakeholders. 4.1Implementation of ERP at KTF Together with the IT professionals groups, SAP is based as the alternative designed, for KTF it is an ERP cost effective system similar to the American International which is around £1 million and also one year for its implementation. Moreover, the consultant companies work on the SAP, will recruited with objectives for guaranteeing best fit among process of businesses and ERP programs.
