# **The Next Wave of ERP: Trends and Lessons from Project Manufacturers** 

**On-Demand Webinar**

ERP systems are evolving fast—driven by AI innovation, changing supply chains, and the growing need for real-time visibility. But one group of manufacturers is already leading the charge: those managing complex, project-based operations.

Join Sam Gupta of ElevatIQ and Kristina Hartjens of Rootstock Software as they explore how emerging ERP trends are transforming manufacturing—and what broader industries can learn from the unique challenges of project manufacturers.

Drawing on recent ElevatIQ research, Sam will share findings on how project manufacturers are pushing ERP solutions to evolve—demanding flexibility for mixed-mode production, milestone billing, long-lead planning, and division-wide visibility. Together, Sam and Kristina will connect these insights to the broader shifts redefining ERP strategy across the industry.

**You’ll learn:**

- The key ERP trends shaping modern manufacturing, from AI-driven automation to agentic workflows
- How project manufacturers’ complex demands are influencing ERP design and innovation
- How Rootstock ERP, built on the Salesforce Platform, supports this new era of flexibility and visibility
- Insights from ElevatIQ on where ERP is headed—and how to prepare your business for what’s next
