Abstract :
In earthquake relief, the broad effects of humanitarian relief include delivery medical material to victims. Scientific relief need quick response of logistics supply chain, which include tracking situational urgency at various locations such as lack of food and medical supplies. The paper introduced the rapid adoption of NC-ERP in Sichuan post-earthquake which was donated by UFIDA. With the rapid implementation methodology and emergency response management, Sichuan Ministry of Health had adopted the donated ERP suite named NC in 10 days. The key success factors of ERP in emergence response and under high risk are support of CEO, construction of project team and rapid involvement of technical consultants which are helpful to solve issues inherent in disaster response collaboration.
