I would be very interested in seeing that model, but remain a little skeptical. Professor William McCarthy's students mapped his one-page REA (Resource-Event-Agent) ontology to some commercial ERP systems and found something like 80% coverage. But that's a business-semantic model and the remaining 20% contains the usual deep ratholes. So if you mean something like "use UML to model ERP" or "use Java to model ERP", that's one thing. If you mean "use BPML to model ERP and you're done, you now have a fully-functional ERP system", it's something else again.
