An implementation of ERP system has effects on improving all over system performance. However, there are many factors affecting the performance of ERP implementation and these factors have to be inspected in accordance to some performance measurements and metrics. Intellectual Capital Management (ICM) is one of the most important factors of ERP implementation. The ICM literature has produced tens of models to support the various ICM activities, such as identification, measurement, valuation, acquisition and reporting of intellectual capital. However, the practice of applying various ICM models seems to be a fairly new issue in many countries and organizations. Turkey is one of those countries that has just been introduced with ICM. Using an ICM system has different effects on the implementation of an ERP system. In this study, a questionnaire based research has been made on Turkish enterprises to analyze ICM'S effects on ERP implementation. Also, we made a cross industrial research and determined those effects in different manufacturing sectors such as electronics and food sectors. Questionnaire results have been analyzed with statistical methods to summarize the current situation. The results of this study can be used to compare the effects of implementation of ERP systems in different industries in Turkey. Understanding of this relationship is very important for current or future ERP implementations. Also these results can be used in the comparison of international differences of the effects of ICM on ERP implementation process.Conference Object Enterprise Resource Planning Implementation Differences Within the Same Methodology - Case Study From West Europe and Turkey(Acad Conferences Ltd, 2011) Erkan, Turan ErmanEnterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems are vital for competitive edge in today's business world. ERP is an integrated information system that serves all departments within an enterprise. Therefore, business processes should be optimised before ERP implementation in order to catch a perfect implementation. Before year 2000 all the giant firms realised their ERP projects and after that best practises took place. After those trial and error based experiences, ERP vendors need to form an ERP implementation methodology. Big ERP vendors developed implementation methodologies, they were almost the same; starting from project preparation to selection, implementation to maintenance and control. Those project methodologies improved the success rate of ERP implementations. This research is both empirical and qualitative. In fact it consists of two monographic researches. They are both about ERP implementations in the same sector. One of the firms is a national one and other one is a multinational one. Both implementations done by the same consultant team with the same methodology, so the evaluation of the project is more objective than any other questionnaire based ones, which are filled by different implementation teams. The findings of the comparison are surprisingly different from each other within the implementations, although they both used the same methodology. Basic steps of the ERP implementation such as: project preparation, business blueprint, realization, final preparation and go live & support differs from each other both in national and multinational firms. The major difference is seen in the first steps which are project preparation and business blueprint. Multinational firm seems to have more chance than the national one in achieving organisational efficiency through successful ERP implementation. The research outcome is useful for professionals running implementation projects and those making decisions on ERP implementation. The results can also be used by practitioners managing ERP projects in order to avoid from implementation methodology illusion.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 2Mba Students' Preference On: Online, Formal and Hybrid Mba Programs(Elsevier Science Bv, 2011) Rouyendegh, Babak Daneshvar; Erkan, Turan ErmanIn recent years, there has been a rapid rise in student enrolments in both online and formal MBA programs. This study is based on the results of a case study in which over 30 students enrolled in a top-ranked online and formal MBA program. Thus, the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) has been used for choosing the program. Due to the inability of AHP to deal with the impression and subjectiveness in the pair-wise comparison process, the FAHP has been used. The result of the research is interesting since neither an online nor a formal education program is preferred; a hybrid one has been developed.

Many companies and public administration try to identify and modify their Lifelong Learning strategies for their sustainability. The purpose of this Lifelong Learning case study is underlying the importance of the phenomena in the Turkish public sector. Business process management was used as a tool for designing and improving the operations in the center and rural area offices of Social Security Institution. The case study was held by an expert of the institution in terms of Lifelong Learning. The improved and managed business processes was clarified in the study in detail. The study states that if there were not Lifelong Learning phenomena in action there would not be any improvement and evaluation of this improvement in the system. (C) 2013 The Authors.

They help optimize queue configurations by real-time data analytics and employing algorithms, working to guide passengers efficiently through the place for check-in, security clearance, and boarding. It leads to a much more pleasant time for the passengers while ensuring better resource utilization and operational planning. This Paper investigates a new queue management system that utilizes advanced technologies like artificial intelligence and real-time data analytics. Such systems enable monitoring of passenger flocking and behavior for adjustability concerning the length of queues and the optimization of service times. The result is an enhanced travel experience and improved airport operational efficiency. The paper takes Singapore Changi Airport as a case study to aid the understanding of how effective management of queues can lead to effective Rose operational efficiency. These findings show that airports can significantly reduce passenger wait times using advanced queue management technologies and enhance the travel experience while facilitating operations. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2026.Conference Object An Evaluation of Using Innovative Information Systems in Local Governments in Turkey: the Case of Cankaya Municipality(Acad Conferences Ltd, 2012) Sahin, Savas Zafer; Erkan, Turan Erman; Cekic, AnilIn the last three decades, waves of globalization caused an upsurge of interest about localities and local governments with respect to various factors of production and consumption. Turkish case is no exception to this change. Beginning with 2000's, Turkish government initiated a new program for a renewed distribution of authorities between central and local governments resulting in rescaling of Turkish state. New authorities and responsibilities were decentralized to local governments. As the local governments in Turkey became the locus of all political activities, debates concerning institutional capacity of them became wide-spread. It has been widely argued that although increasing number of authorities were transferred to local governments; they lack necessary institutional capacity and know-how to manage increasing number of responsibilities and changing spatial structure. For this respect, the problem with local governments in Turkey has three facets. First of all, decision-making mechanisms of local governments is weak, both process wise and with regards to rationality, accountability and transparency. Mostly, political patronage is more influential than good governance. Secondly, implementation level of innovative information systems in decision making-mechanism with regards to spatial issues, service production and public participation is poor. For instance, although information systems like UIS (Urban Information systems), IAM (Intangible Asset Management), IRP etc. are used, they are either poorly integrated to management system or became obsolete because of lack of proper performance measurement and evaluation. In Turkish case there is a clear gap between management practices of local government service delivery and use of innovative information systems. In this paper, it is aimed to portray the underlying dynamics and problems behind ineffective use of innovative information systems in local governments in Turkey. For this purpose, one of the largest and well-known district municipalities of Turkey, Cankaya Municipality in Ankara is taken for a case study. Cankaya Municipality's technological capacity and use of innovative information systems is assessed in terms of accountability, decision-making, and public participation. Results of the assessment will be used to develop some strategies and tools for improving municipality's capacity to make better use of information systems.Conference Object Selection of Erp System Using Qfd Approach: a Pilot Study From Turkey(Acad Conferences Ltd, 2012) Ictenbas, Burcu Devrim; Rouyendegh, Babak Daneshvar; Erkan, Turan ErmanToday companies face the challenge of increasing competition, expanding markets and rising competition. Many organizations seek to improve their competitiveness by utilizing advanced information technology, such as Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems. Selection of appropriate ERP system is a vital decision for any enterprise in this intense competitive environment. The selection process is complicated since complexity of ERP systems and too many alternatives. Requirements analysis of a software system like ERP is often considered to be one of the most important steps in the software selection process. Quality Function Deployment (QFD) is a methodology to translate customer requirements into the final product or service characteristics. In spite of successful applications of QFD in familiar fields such as product planning, education quality and service quality, the usability of QFD in the selection of software systems have been seen in only few studies. The purpose of the study is to determinethe most important technical attributes of the ERP systems from the end - users' perspective using QFD methodology. The developed framework integrates ERP characteristics obtained from vendors in the market and the list of customer requirements by taking into account the company profile and strategic selection criteria. The solution proposed in this study will support decision makers to manage the early stages of ERP selection according the company's needs.Conference Object Layout Improvement Method Selection for a Mass Production Facility(IEOM Society, 2018) Baç,U.; Erkan,T.E.Purpose of this study is to identify, analyze, and propose a solution to an industrial problem that would satisfy the needs of a manufacturing company by using tools and techniques of Industrial Engineering. For this purpose, production system of a metal cap manufacturer company, which is a well-known mass production company in packaging industry since 1963 in Turkey, has been inspected. In the first part of the study, overall system has been analyzed, problem symptoms have been identified, and then the problem definition has been made. Two problems have been defined as: (i) insufficient production capacity, and (ii) inefficient production system. According to these findings, objectives of this study has been determined as: (i) the improvement of the efficiency of current system by making some layout changes and making small-scale investments, (ii) analyze large-scale investment alternatives in the long run and conduct engineering economic analysis of these investment alternatives. Within this scope, alternative solution approaches, analysis of these alternatives, and selection of best alternative have been accomplished.
