Abstract: The Enterprise Resources Planning (ERP) systems are one of the highly complex systems in the information systems field; the implementations of this type of systems need a long time, high cost, and a lot of resources. Many factors affect the successful implementation of ERP system. The critical success factors (CSFs) can be categorized as general, ICT related and software engineering or system life cycle (SLC) related. This paper is a survey paper that identifies ERP systems CSFs in general and software engineering CSFs in specific. Also an agile methodology for ERP systems' implementations will be presented. Many existing ERP systems were surveyed and presented from ICT / software engineering point of view.
