Abstract Explores the need for a business process re‐engineering methodology and presents a critique of the existing methodologies. The identified weaknesses served as a basis for the development of a new eight‐stage BPR methodology which was implemented and evaluated within three European construction companies. Summarises these stages, highlighting the need for a more integrated approach to organisational change where the human and organisational issues are incorporated in the implementation of the BPR initiative.
AbstractList Explores the need for a business process re-engineering methodology and presents a critique of the existing methodologies. The identified weaknesses served as a basis for the development of a new eight-stage BPR methodology which was implemented and evaluated within three European construction companies. Summarises these stages, highlighting the need for a more integrated approach to organisational change where the human and organisational issues are incorporated in the implementation of the BPR initiative.
Business process reengineering (BPR) consultants are characterized and differentiate themselves by the methodology they apply. Although there are many successful practices and methodologies, many famous BPR authors argue that process innovation remains more art than science. Furthermore, many authors argue that BPR is a relatively new discipline and area of research and, as a result, the knowledge of the subject is not sufficient to enable methodologies to be defined and developed precisely. The advantages and disadvantages of using a methodology in the context of BPR are presented.
