Are any "planned" enterprises/economies running SAP?

If so, I'd be curious to know (not sure if social security/health care systems count in this category.)

When the US defense sector first started considering SAP ten years ago, one question on everybody's mind was whether an ERP system could work if it was originally designed for a context where bottom-line considerations are the prime directives, and then put into a context where "readiness" (in the military sense) is the prime directive.

That's what got me thinking about "SAP for Communism", "SAP for Socialism", and "SAP for Fascism".

How would they differ from "SAP for Capitalism"?

(I mean no offense to anyone by the word "fascism" - I mean it solely in its pure economic sense - "state capitalism" - with no overtones from the past.)
