The technological advancement has made decision-making in the procurement management
sector more strategic. The use of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) has facilitated the
integration of company information, assisting various departments and providing numerous
benefits, enabling improvements in the analysis and interpretation of data related to
procurement activities for goods and materials. In this context, the case study aims to analyze
the effectiveness of ERP system utilization in strategic procurement management within a
motorcycle parts distributor in the city of Araguaína, Brazil. To conduct the research, a semi-
structured interview methodology was proposed. The results of this study demonstrate that the
use of ERP system in the motorcycle parts distributor meets the expectations of the
procurement department, reducing human errors, managing suppliers, and providing valuable
information that aids in decision-making, resulting in a significant improvement in company
performance.
