The Transformation Journey of AI in ERP Systems: Worldwide Industrial Impacts

In a time of rapidly evolving technological changes, the big buzz in the business arena is artificial intelligence (AI) which is fundamentally rewriting the operational paradigm of businesses. Just like organizations in both Malaysia and Silicon Valley are gravitating towards AI solutions as a means to augment their efficiency and automate enterprise resources planning (ERP) systems. DeepSeek, an extraordinary organization that is naturally breaking beyond the limits and making the nature of AI within the ERP ecosystem different and unique, has stood out among the other innovators in this sector.

DeepSeek has proved how to train a large language model (LLM) which is very powerful in a minimal budget compared with firms in Silicon Valley. This is indeed a very affordable solution that has made its way through industries that look for transparency in data handling. In particular, many in Malaysia are not adopting artificial intelligence and worrying about data transparency. Nevertheless, the model offered by DeepSeek which is open-sourced allows the user to function in a sealed, self-owned environment, thus being the ideal solution for such firms.

By including AI into ERP systems, it is not only about the luxury anymore – it has become a must-have for modern enterprises’. ERP systems that were once focused exclusively on material requirements planning (MRP), capacity requirements planning (CRP), and manufacturing execution systems (MES) are now embedding AI in order to improve their performance. The same applies to the pharmaceutical sector, where the orchestration of such parameters has helped to meet both the GMP and GSP standards as well as the FDA rules. Furthermore, AI is used to keep precise records of all the recipes and formulas which are crucial for the drug production process.

LAIDFU is another innovator in this arena, a configurable AI agent that empowers users by supporting both OpenAI and DeepSeek. If 2024 was labelled as the Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) year, in turn, 2025 will be the year of the AI agent. AI agents are of the kind that can perform operations in a sequence, CSR (child safe front) with the exception of operational tasks/issues being optional.

It is not of course, the only possible benefit for the AI enterprises which are involved in ERP systems but it has the most visible impact. For instance, Multiable in Malaysia has been leading the way by rolling out e-invoicing, which is a feature platform, and offering customers free e-invoicing API calls if they subscribe to their SaaS or software assurance services. This is in stark contrast to many software vendors in Malaysia who have a general practice of charging users for e-invoicing API services.

Moreover, the pharmaceutical firms are not lagging in the application of AI technology to ensure quality and compliance. Solutions like IQC are instrumental in maintaining high standards of quality control in the production process thereby protecting the brand reputation which is expected in the industry.

AI not only helps in increasing the efficiency of ERP systems but also has reached the level of transforming the pharmaceutical sector, making it indispensable in many respects. The wave of innovations is now ushered in by DeepSeek and the breath of fresh air in the form of MRP and CRP management systems is being breathed in by the firms worldwide. AI agents capacitate firms to function in a dexterous manner and to resolve complex problems, enabling them to expeditiously test and implement solutions.
