Competition is the spirit of the enterprise now. Accuracy and speed are the most important requirements in this. And it now involves the integration and comprehension of details and information from many segments of the business. The daunting task is, however, made possible by the revolutions in Information Technology. Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) is primarily an enterprise wide system that can accommodate corporate mission, objectives, attitudes, beliefs, values, operating style and people who make the organization. The inadequacy of the old system is the mother of this invention. Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP): A Managerial and Technical Perspective is designed as a textbook that bridges the unaddressed gap between managerial issues and technical issues, providing also some case studies.

Download or read book Public Sector Enterprise Resource Planning written by Rainer Sommer and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2006 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Worldwide, public sector organizations are implementing commercial packaged software solutions, or enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, to increase productivity and customer service as well as to deploy manageable business processes. To that end, this book provides workable solutions from experienced public sector program and project managers, consulting leaders and academic researchers who have proven expertise in large scale public sector ERP implementation. Existing research shows that while public sector enterprises generally agree by consensus, and thus have different management cultures than their private sector counterparts, their management practices are driven by a private sector model. Given the tremendous growth in public sector ERP spending and the risks associated with such politically-charged projects, new approaches to change management must be explored. The contributors present expertly researched federal, commercial and academic views on how public sector organizations are integrating their business processes, and how they relate to the private sector experience. The discussion covers all aspects of the new private sector management paradigm, including strategic planning, change management, process change, and information system implementation. The contributors provide details on the implementation steps, and make suggestions for how public sector program managers and contractor teams should plan change management and ERP initiatives. Researchers and students in the areas of management, public sector enterprises and public policy will find the volume's insights of great value. Managers with oversight in public sector organizations will find the volume of great practical interest.
Download or read book Managing Enterprise Resource Planning Adoption and Business Processes written by Chuck C.H. Law and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-04-03 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent decades have witnessed many ERP failures attributable to a plethora of mistakes, and the author writes this book aiming to correct these malpractices concerning ERP adoption. The author presents an adoption methodology, called the Full Lifecycle ERP Adoption Reference (FLEAR) model, to promote holistic project management. Furthermore, from a holistic perspective, successful ERP adoption cannot be achieved in isolation of other business and organizational issues such as IT-business strategic alignment, IT governance, change management, and business process changes. Unlike many ERP books in the market which cover mostly technical deployment issues, this book also addresses the aforesaid business-related issues. Theoretical discussions are supported by extensive research, and practical experience drawn from North American and international contexts to benefit practitioners involved in international assignments. Thus, this book will benefit not only MIS personnel, but also non-technical business practitioners. It will also be a useful supplement for university-level MIS and business process management courses.

Download or read book Enterprise Resource Planning Systems Challenges of Enterprise Software Implementation written by Mercy Njiru and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2016-02-12 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2014 in the subject Business economics - Supply, Production, Logistics, , language: English, abstract: However challenging it may be in carrying out this research, its findings are expected to give a contribution towards role-based ERP system implementation practice. This study’s findings are expected to be significant to various interested parties, for example vendors may understand price- and design-based problems facing target customers and simplify applications to assist companies to implement role-based ERP systems with ease. On the other hand, people or companies implementing role-based ERP systems can also realize the internal and extraneous needs and get prepared effectively. The trouble in implementing role-based ERP systems in industrialized nations may be worsened by the assertion that role-based ERP embodies proved ways of doing business thus requiring companies adopting role-based ERP systems to adjust their corporate processes to comply with business practices constitutional in role-based ERP packages. Venders contend that the implementation of such best practices lowers the cost of configuring the software and results in improving the company’s processes. Therefore, Gosain, S. (2004) says that companies and their stakeholders many times strain to implement such practices.
Download or read book Enterprise Resource Planning ERP written by Avraham Shtub and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-03-26 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To an increasing extent, corporations are recognizing the strategic role of the operations function. These organizations are discovering that a focus on customer needs is effective only if the operations function is designed and managed to meet those needs. From acquiring raw materials to fabricating parts, to assembling products, to customer delivery, a total systems perspective can enable us, in the ideal, to fashion an operations function like the inner workings of a finely tuned machine (Like clockwork as we used to say in the days before electronic time pieces!). Life would be uninteresting without change, however, so we can be thankful that operating systems are dynamic in nature. We alter one element and others are affected. We introduce variability at one point and watch the ripple effects over time. These system behaviors can be difficult to grasp and even more difficult to predict. In addition to understanding the dynamic, integrated nature of systems it is important to understand and to practice the tools supporting the management of these systems. Teaching the concepts of modern information systems and the ability of these systems to enhance competitiveness are an important challenge to any I.E or MBA program.
Download or read book Challenges in Implementing Enterprise Resource Planning ERP System in Large Organizations written by Goeun Seo and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enterprise resource planning (ERP) system has been one of the most popular business management systems, providing benefits of real-time capabilities and seamless communication for business in large organizations. However, not all ERP implementations have been successful. Since ERP implementation affects entire organizations such as process, people, and culture, there are a number of challenges that companies may encounter in implementing ERP systems. Recently, some universities have begun replacing their legacy systems with ERP systems to improve management and administration. This thesis focuses on challenges of ERP implementation between corporate and university environment. I review previous studies that determine Critical Successful Factors (CSFs) and risk factors to implement ERP in both environments. Particularly, case studies in this thesis emphasize the organizational dynamics involved in ERP implementation by using CSFs and three phases of framework by Miles and Huberman (1994): antecedent condition, implementation process, and outcomes. This study uses findings from the case studies to assess ERP readiness and CSFs' fulfillment. The results from this study contribute to contextual understanding of distinctive challenges in ERP implementation between corporate and university environment.
