Office Gains Supply Chain Ties
One way to keep Office out of the features wars with free open source tools
is for Microsoft to push the suite as a development environment and as a front-end
to enterprise applications such as ERP. This week,
Microsoft
made its pitch for Office to front-end supply chain back-ends.
Microsoft has a small share of the supply chain software market today, but
I predict it will be a major player in years to come.
