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 The US Public Sector and Its Adoption of Service Oriented Technology written by David W. Coleman and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Information Technology (IT) provides public sector organizations the capability to provide real increases in organizational effectiveness by aiding in the efficient exchange of information. Adoption of advanced IT such as service oriented environments, Web 2.0, and bespoke systems such as Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) promises to markedly improve that capability via presumed gains in efficiency. However, this presumed associated gain in organizational effectiveness may be stymied/enhanced by constraints or incentives, particularly as they may relate to information sharing. This thesis reports on research in this area framed within a case study environment. The dissertation addresses data collected and findings associated with a survey of public sector organizations. It provides, in some detail, the analytical steps involved in the method and reports findings.

Download or read book The Effects of Enterprise Resource Planning ERP Systems Post implementation on Strengthening the Technology Capacity for Digital Government Excellence written by Mohamad Abu Ghazaleh and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Government authorities are embracing digitalization to provide user-friendly services to citizens and simultaneously reduce the cost of offering such services. There are success stories, but failures also abound. Technology is not the only determinant of failure; other determinants include process, people, and structural issues within institutions. The purpose of this quantitative study, guided by previous studies, is to determine some of the barriers that governments have encountered following the implementation of enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems in a digital government context. It also aims to investigate the strategies used to ensure the continued success of ERP post-implementation and the impact of these strategies on strengthening the technical capacity of digital government transformation by studying by studying the opinions of ERP system users working in government authorities in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The study also tests the mediating effects of ERP post-implementation success on the adoption of digital government. A survey was sent to government employees who are using enterprise systems representing a sample of 450 participants within the United Arab emirates [sic] The questionnaire was administered during the special big technology event of 2019 in UAE. The measurement model was created using EFA. Reliability, covergent validity, and discriminant validity were also assessed using CFA followed by SEM and path analysis to test the hypotheses and to identify significant predictors of current Post ERP practices and digital government excellence. The main factors and strategies included peoples’ readiness, process readiness, absorptive capacity, shared understanding, interactive communication, ERP post-implementation success, and digital government excellence. Results showed that the proposed determinant factors of ERP post-implementation success had a statistically significant relationship with the successful implementation of ERP systems. Furthermore, results showed a statistically significant relationship between ERP post-implementation success and digital government excellence. The findings have important theoretical and practical implications; there are still obstacles facing digital government that lead to a high failure rate. Therefore, the UAE’s technology decision makers in should frame their strategic approach with a comprehensive change management plan throughout the firm founded on organizational readiness, effective communication, and knowledge management. Change includes the potential to improve the government authorities’ readiness, cultivate more knowledgable employees, increase digital government excellence indicators, spread knowledge, increase ERP users’ experience and expertise in government, and improve the digital government excellence overall. Finally, one key implication of this research is that it provides evidence of the relationship between government back-end systems and digital citizen services. This should encourage government authorities to assist decision makers in paying more attention to their ERP systems, process, people, and structural issues within organizations. The primary theoretical objective of this research is to contribute to the body of knowledge regarding both ERP systems post-implementation and digital government excellence.

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 Global Opportunities and Challenges written by Hossain, Liaquat and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2001-07-01 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) refers to large commercial software packages that promise a seamless integration of information flow through an organization by combining various sources of information into a single software application and a single database. The outcome of ERP itself is still a mystery, but the trends and issues it has created will be the enigma that future generations will have to solve. Traditionally, separate units were created within an organization to carry out various tasks, and these functional areas would create their own information systems thereby giving rise to systems that were not integrated. ERP strives to provide a solution to these problems. Enterprise Resource Planning Solutions and Management examines the issues that need to be further studied and better understood to ensure successful implementation and deployment of ERP systems.
