This study was conducted with the aim to collect and review the work done so far in the field of BPR. Focus of this study was on providing a comprehensive overview of overall development of BPR concept, theories, models, approaches and outcomes, and success and failure causes. Design/Methodology/ Approach: study was based on secondary source i.e. published and available researches in the field ...

The field of Business Process Re-Engineering (BPR) aimed at enabling the large scale re-design of processes within organisations. BPR initiatives are by nature highly knowledge intensive activities. In this paper we argue that the knowledge based nature of BPR has not previously received sufficient recognition. We explain how BPR initiatives can be assisted through the use of techniques and too...

Business Process Reengineering (BPR) is an important aspect of Business Process Management. The concept of BPR has been widely discussed in the past decade; however, it remains undetermined how prevalent the applications of Davenport, Hammer and Champy’s ideas are, especially with respect to their relevancy for actual business practice. This paper analyses which ideas of BPR actually have been ...

OBJECTIVE To determine the prevalence of biliopancreatic reflux (BPR) in patients with biliary pancreatitis (BP) undergoing elective cholecystectomy with intraoperative cholangiography (IOC) in comparison with a control group of symptomatic cholelithiasis (CG). PATIENTS AND METHODS Retrospective review of 107 consecutive BP cases. BPR was determined by IOC and liver function tests (LFT) were ...

Business process reengineering (BPR) is one of a company's major instruments to achieve improved performance. BPR projects almost always include major efforts on developing and integrating information technology. This paper addresses how BPR and application development may be methodologically integrated, building on a product-based design of business processes and a component-based IT developme...

ciples of business process reengineering (BPR) over the past decade. However, in hindsight, it is becoming clear that results are not quite as positive as they first appeared. Recent studies suggest that the BPR success rate (i.e., the frequency with which BPR initiatives achieve, sustain, and continuously improve on performance targets) may be as low as 30%. Many executives confirm that the he...

BACKGROUND The Battery of Reasoning Tests 5 (BPR-5) aims to assess the reasoning ability of individuals, using sub-tests with different formats and contents that require basic processes of inductive and deductive reasoning for their resolution. The BPR has three sequential forms: BPR-5i (for children from first to fifth grade), BPR-5 - Form A (for children from sixth to eighth grade) and BPR-5 ...

Today, the development of information technology has led business process reengineering (BPR) into an age of inter-organizational BPR: rethinking and redesigning business processes at both the enterprise and supply chain level. Meanwhile, growth in BPR results in the popularity of business modeling techniques. The rapidly growing number of techniques induces the complexity in the selection of a...
