The five moral dimensions are:
(1 ) Information rights and obligations. What rights do individuals and organizations have with respect to information pertaining to them?
(2 ) Property rights and obligations. How can intellectual property rights be protected when it is so easy to copy digital materials?
(3 ) Accountability and control. Who will be held accountable and liable for the harm done to individual and collective information and property rights?
(4 ) System quality. What standards of data and system quality should we demand to protect in dividual rights and the safety of society?
(5 ) Quality of life. What values should be preserved? What institutions must we protect? What cultural values can be harmed?
Individual answers for determining the most difficult for society to deal with will vary. One answer might be: Quality of life issues will be most difficult for society to deal with in societies that are comprised of many different cultural and ethnic groups, such as the United States. It is difficult to regulate concerns that are based on subjective values.

Despite implementation hurdles, the ERP, at least to integrate finance and human resources, is becoming a near necessity for most organizations. Once in place, it can dramatically enhance operational efficiencies and reduce costs. A key ingredient, of course, is that the organization's employees actually change the way they work to take best advantage of the integrated back-end and paperless workflows.
If used properly, ERP systems can standardize and streamline business processes across the whole enterprise, eliminating the waste and redundancy that creep in when everyone's work is so focused on a single department. An ERP helps people appreciate the full process, spanning departments, not just the part that touches their unit.
