    Effects of BPR on ERP Implementation Success and Supply Chain Performance
    (Acad Conferences Ltd, 2012) Erkan, Erman; Bac, Ugur; Rouyendegh, Babak Daneshvar
    Recently, studies about the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) have been increased and this research area has attracted more attention. Especially, in the global competition environment, enterprises have to focus on their Information Systems (IS) performance to have a competitive advantage; implementing an ERP system and improving the effectiveness of the system is the only way. To do so; factors affecting the implementation success of ERP systems have to be inspected in pursuant of some performance measurements and metrics. Since unsuccessful ERP implementations result in high costs; use of these factors and making the necessary preparations will increase the chance of a successful ERP implementation. According to literature Business Process Reengineering (BPR) has a vital role on the ERP success. In this study, a research has been made on the Turkish enterprises to determine the criteria affecting their success on the implementation of ERP systems by the utilization of a questionnaire. Questionnaire results have been analyzed with statistical methods to summarize the current situation of IS structure, Information Management Systems integration level, ERP success rate and effects of BPR on this success rate in Turkish enterprises. Results of this study can be used to define the relation between the ERP and BPR. Understanding this relation is vital for the planned or ongoing ERP implementations. Factors and criteria found in this study which have effects on the ERP systems success should be considered during the implementation planning phase of these systems for efficiently managing the budget of projects. Importance of BPR which was emphasized in this study should be considered by the management of enterprises for evaluating their IS to determine if they are ready for the implementation phase. If they are not, findings will serve as a guideline for improving the chance of successful implementation and this will affect overall performance of the company. Results of this study can also be used in the future studies to compare international differences of IS structures and ERP implementation processes.

    Intellectual Capital Management's Effects on Enterprise Resource Planning Implementation
    (Acad Conferences Ltd, 2012) Erkan, Turan Erman; Ozdemir, Yavuz Selim; Bac, Ugur
    The implementation of an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system can be one of the most important strategic decisions an organization undertakes. 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.
