The object of this study is to elicit major success factors along with the phases of implementing the BPR in case of public corporations. To obtain the goal of this research, (1) this study reviews and integrates the major previous BPR studies and shows critical success factors of implementing BPR projects coincided with the characteristics of the public organizations. (2) This study has analyzed and arranged the details of BPR projects of public corporations in South Korea through the literature survey, the questionnaire and the interview. (3) This study classifies 40 critical success factors which were identified in existing studies into ones belonging to 3 phases of BPR projects implementation: Introduction Phase, Execution Phase and Stabilization Phase. (4) This study has tested the relation between critical success factors on each stage of BPR projects implementation and the performance variables. It has proven that there is the statistically significant correlation between the success factors and the performance. The findings of this study are thought not only to be useful as a practical guideline in carrying out BPR project Implementation but also to provide significant basis for constructing the theoretical framework of effective BPR project implementation strategy.

Many Companies have expected that BPR and ERP implementation could keep up with changes in business management and information technology in Mega-competition era. But we cannot expect the performance improvement of enterprises without conjunction of BPR and ERP implementation This paper points out the problems of BPR ＆ ERP implementation and present solutions to problems by the BPR using ERP system and the concurrent implementation of BPR and ERP.

The Objective of this study is empirically investigating organizational/managerial factors affecting BPR implementation. The contributions of this research project are two-fold. First, this research project provides empirically tested CSFs and CFF of BPR implementation. Especially, the influence of the organizational culture, structure, and managerial support on BPR implementation were thoroughly investigated. Second, this research found the combined effects of CSF and CFF. Top management commitment, leadership style, and collaborative work environment were found to negate employee resistance to a reengineered process and lead to a successful BPR implementation, especially when the level of employee resistance is high.

The previous BPR success factor research assumes that a success factor is responsible for both the success and failure of the BPR implementation. This paper proposes that a BPR success factor is not necessarily a failure factor, i.e., success and failure of BPR implementation are two distinct phenomena that possess different sets of causal factors. The paper also proposes that the factors are different in terms of the degree and type of influence they exert on the BPR implementation. An empirical research was conducted to validate the propositions. The research results indicate that the BPR success and failure have different causal factor sets, and that the factor influence manifests in different realms and domains. The implications of the research are discussed at the end.

A Previous ERP studies came up with a number of critical success factors which would be worth referencing at the time of ERP implementation. However, we have not found much work describing the relationship between ERP implementation approaches and ERP effectiveness. We are strongly confident that it is effective to show these managers 'how firms approach' would greatly influence the outcome of BRP endeavor. In this regards, this study aims to show this strong tie empirically. Especially, we are interested in showing why re-engineering efforts ought to be taken prior to or simultaneously with, the ERP implementation. Our main concern was whether BPR efforts were taken with respect to ERP implementation and what roles managers or If managers have taken with respect to both BPR and ERP. In order to Present a more detail Picture of ERP implementation in Korea's S&M enterprise, we further had an intensive case study.

As more organizations undertake IT-enabled business process reengineering(BPR), IT-enabled BPR projects become a major concern. Especially, one of IT, Enterprise Resource Planning System (ERP) is recognized as a revolution solution. But the success cases of ERP project are rarely reported. In this study, ERP implementation is defined as a IS implementation project based on BPR concepts To explore the issues of implementing ERP systems, a company implementing ERP successfully in Korea is selected. The research framework consists of four components: 1) strategic plan dimension , 2) organizational environment dimension, 3) implementation process dimension, and 4) IT dimension. On this framework, to implement ERP systems successfully, the analysis of the results clearly suggests appropriate planning, top management support, change management, appropriate methodology , ERP specialist commitment, management of standard process and master data, and the extent of IT localization.

The purpose of this study is to derive critical success factors for ERP system implementation by integrating managerial, technical, human resource and organizational culture factors which have been proposed as influencing factors for the performance of ERP system implementation in previous studies. The main results of this study are as follows. First, it derives 33 success factors through comprehensive review of various factors which may affect ERP system implementation performance, and categorizes them into one of three stages : preparation stage, implement stage, and settle-down and stabilization stage. Second, this study tests whether there are different correlations or not between the success factors of each ERP system implementation stage and ERP system implementation performance depending upon the strategies of ERP system implementation. As a result, it is shown that some of success factors have significantly different correlations with performance variables in accordance with BPR implementation timing.

Business process reengineering(BPR) aims at a radical redesign of our business processes in order to achieve dramatic improvements in their performance. However, the fact that many BPR projects have failed hesitates the companies who have started to use BPR or who are planning to do so. Implementing a radical plan from a cross-functional perspective needs a more careful consideration of process vision, preventive measures and contigency plan. Our research suggests to use a visual decision making process (VDMP) in the development of a process vision and implementation plan. A BPR project of Carlaon School of Mnagement (CSOM) at the University of Minnesota is illustrated to show our suggested methodology.

Two reasons for the low success rate of the practical implementation of BPR are the lack of good models and consideration of information system development stage in a BPR project. This paper suggests an Integrated Business Process Model (IBPM), which incorporates two distinct but interrelated points of view: form and business process. By integrating the form model with the business process model, the IBPM has advantages in performing BPR projects; it helps to build the model, to analyze and redesign business processes, and to do requirement analysis of information systems. This paper also suggests a new BPR supporting tool, BRAWII(Business Reengineering Assistance Workbench version 2.0). BRAWIIsupports IBPM and manages full stages of BPR project. In the design of BRAWII, the linkage between results of a BPR project and requirements for information system development is considered.
