Abstract : The use of technology and information is crucial for keeping up with emerging business trends as the Industrial Revolution 4.0 expands and heads towards 5.0. Particularly crucial is the use of enterprise resource planning (ERP) for enterprise management. ERP systems aid companies in managing projects and resource utilization while reducing time and effort expenditure. The procedures are carried out mechanically rather than by hand. Errors are prevented by the system's simultaneous proper and efficient operation. ERP data allows businesses to make important decisions. In the fashion sector, the business and product standards are very dissimilar. It is essential to have an ERP system that can manage purchases as well as handle inventory items, pricing, corporate structures, and campaign management. ERP features include a system with a huge number of data, the use of a top-down strategy that enables production chain management to be attentive, and the realization of complete ERP system management. The ERP system has improved control over the manufacturing chains in many businesses. This essay examines the use of ERP in the apparel sector and examines some of the possible advantages. The information used in this study was compiled from several academic sources as well as other sources like reports and other materials. At the conclusion of the paper, the conclusions and suggestions were discussed. Manufacturing organizations may profit from ERP systems in today's hyperconnected, data-driven economy if staff receive proper training and reliable data, as the value of ERP systems directly depends on data quality.
