Technical Standard Development and Application for Cross-Industry Data Integration of Enterprise-Level ERP Systems

Abstract

In the context of accelerated digital transformation of enterprises, cross-industry business collaboration is becoming increasingly frequent. ERP systems, as the core management platforms of enterprises, are experiencing a growing demand for data integration with third-party systems such as WMS, CRM, and financial systems. However, current cross-industry ERP data integration faces challenges such as heterogeneous data formats (with a difference rate exceeding 40%), synchronization delays (averaging 2.3 hours), and high integration failure rates (reaching 38%). Existing national standards lack cross-industry adaptability, and the maintenance cost of enterprise-defined interfaces is high. Based on project practices of benchmark enterprises such as Unilever and Kehua Bio, this paper constructs a tripartite cross-industry ERP integration technical standard system of “interface compatibility – data consistency – security controllability” through a combination of literature research, industry surveys, case analysis, and empirical verification. The system effectively solves data integration problems in fast-moving consumer goods, manufacturing, pharmaceutical, and other industries by establishing unified interface specifications, a data element dictionary, and a tiered security mechanism. Empirical verification shows that after the application of the standard, the enterprise data integration success rate is increased to 100%, synchronization delay is shortened to the minute level, and maintenance cost is reduced by 67%. The standard has been adopted by 87 enterprises and included in the “Enterprise-Level ERP Integration Guide” of the China Software Industry Association. The research results provide a theoretical framework and practical standards for cross-industry system integration and are of great significance for promoting the digital collaborative development of enterprises.
