Nearly all information technology educators and practitioners are familiar with the concept of a systems development life cycle (SDLC). The SDLC model is mainly based on new software development. The stages vary based on methodology, but mostly include planning and requirements definition, analysis, design of the new system, implementation, and post-implementation support such as maintenance an...

Improving business processes provides companies with advantages in terms of efficiency and profitability, as well competitiveness against other the market. Companies that integrate enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems into digital platforms also have opportunity to strengthen their weaknesses by recognizing disruptions bottlenecks inefficient thanks this transformation. Descriptive biblio...

The current study examined the longitudinal impact of ERP adoption on firm performance by matching 63 firms identified by Hayes et al. [J. Inf. Syst. 15 (2001) 3] with peer firms that had not adopted ERP systems. Results indicate that return on assets (ROA), return on investment (ROI), and asset turnover (ATO) were significantly better over a 3-year period for adopters, as compared to nonadopte...

Background: Planning and controlling surgical operations hugely impacts upon productivity, patient safety, and surgeons’ careers. Established, specialized software for this task is being increasingly replaced by “Operating Room (OR)-modules” appended to enterprise-wide resource planning (ERP) systems. As a result, usability problems are re-emerging and require developers’ attention. Objective: ...

Alcohol intoxication often leads to dysregulated behavior in contexts characterized by conflict between prepotent response tendencies and incompatible alternative responses. Recent research has identified 2 components of an anterior executive attention system that are essential for adaptive behavior when response conflict exists. Event-related potential (ERP) measures of evaluative and regulati...

The manufacturing industry faces many challenges such as reducing time-to-market and cutting costs. In order to meet these increasing demands, effective methods are need to support the early product development stages by bridging the gap of communicating early design ideas and the evaluation of manufacturing performance. This paper introduces methods of linking design and manufacturing domains ...

This study explores whether an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) implementation project mediates the relationship between dynamic preadoption capabilities and ERP-enabled business improvements. The results from our field survey of large ERP adopters in Austria suggest that the effects of the two out of three selected dynamic capabilities are dependent on the properties of the underlying organi...

This paper investigates ERP absorption in transition and developed economies in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). Using absorptive capacity theory and data envelopment analysis, we view organisational transformation in Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) absorption as an economic production process. Despite converging ERP saturation levels, our data identifies gaps in absorption levels and perfo...

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems have attracted wide popularity as they promise multidimensional benefits and competitive leadership. However complexity and failures of their successful adoption and implementation have stolen the limelight, resulting in considerable literature on understanding the critical success factors (CSFs) or conditions in which the ERP systems could be successf...
