The role of Business Process Re-engineering and Object Orientation in Organisations
نویسنده
چکیده
Organisations must be increasingly flexible and adaptable if they are to remain competitive in today’s environment. Business Process Re-engineering (BPR) and Object Orientation (OO) have both been put forward as ways to improve flexibility and adaptability. This paper presents a model of the possible synergistic links between OO and BPR and the findings of research that suggests such a relationship may exist. The paper concludes that there are potential benefits to be gained from both, but the real value of these approaches lies in the application of only those parts of the model needed to make it work for the organisation in question.
