= Network Resource Planning [NRP] is Enterprise Resource Planning [ERP] rethought completely for P2P Open Value Networks.


Context

Bob Haugen:


"This project started in 2012 as a collaboration between SENSORICA and Mikorizal Software.

Network Resource Planning [NRP] is Enterprise Resource Planning [ERP] rethought completely for P2P Open Value Networks.

The software has changed its name regularly. It started out being called Valnet, then Value Accounting System [VAS], then Open Value Network Operating System [OVN-OS], and now it seems to have settled down as NRP.

The slide deck referenced below is the current best overview.

See also: Valnet"


Description

Apostolis Xekoukoulotakis:

"New software is emerging designed for OVNs producing material goods. One such application is Network Resource Planning (NRP), which is ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) for networks. NRP is being developed by a collaboration between Sensorica (described above), and some open-source software developers who have experience in “lean manufacturing” supply chains (http://mikorizal.org).

This is operational software, for running an open value network as an economic organization. It logs contributions, coordinates work, and distributes income to contributors. It also does multi-party accounting: that is, accounting reports for each participating person and organization, covering their activities within the network. It does not do ecommerce or social networking." (http://commonsfest.info/en/2015/anichta-diktia-axias/)

"The django-rea organization is created in aim to create a set of building blocks on which other Django apps can build upon to create Network Resource Planning Systems - NRP, as opposed to the more restricted common patterns we encounter in enterprise resource planning systems - ERP.

The project starts from the valuenetwork project, centered around Open Value Networks. This evolved into a NRP gravitating towards openness and transparency. NRP was co-designed and is in daily use by Sensorica.

The NRP software was then adopted, forked , and changed, by Freedom Coop for their Open Collaborative Platform (OCP).
