Using monthly performance data for stores in a retail chain for over six years and new surveys of managers and employees, we investigate the impact of the adoption of an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system, especially for the time profile of performance changes. Representative findings (depending on specification) are that: (i) sales and inventory turnover initially drop by 7 %, and recov...

IMUTUS (Interactive Music Tuition System) is a EU project that aims to develop a practising environment for the recorder, combining new technologies and new approaches for music learning. Automatic analysis and evaluation of student performances play a central role in the student-system interaction. The performance evaluation module identifies typical performance errors, and provides feedback t...

Organizations spend billions of dollars and countless hours implementing Enterprise Resources Planning systems (ERPs) to attain better performance. However, the failure rate of ERP implementation is very high, with subsequent research interests focussing mainly on understanding the failure factors. With the spotlight of prior research mainly focussed on success and failure factors other importa...

Building on Resource Based View theory, we investigate the complementary effect between ERP and e-business technologies, and the impact of such effect on business performance. Different from previous studies that assume ERP and ebusiness technologies have direct effects on firm performance, this study argues that it is the complementarily use of the two IT resources to build integration capabil...

INTRODUCTION Enhanced recovery programs (ERP) are no longer questionable in the management of patients undergoing surgery. However, there is some doubt as to their feasibility and efficacy in the elderly. Our goal was to systematically review the evidence-based literature concerning the feasibility of ERP in elderly patients undergoing colorectal surgery. MATERIAL AND METHODS The PubMed and C...

Implementation process ERP is complex and expensive process. Typically always be faced with many failures. Successfully implemented in an organization has many challenges. Organizations in the deployment and success of the system depends on several factors.One of the key factors in the successful deployment of systems methodology is the implementation process. Methodology has several indicators...

Learning from high performance projects is crucial for software process improvement. Therefore, we need to identify outstanding projects that may serve as role models. It is common to measure productivity as an indicator of performance. It is vital that productivity measurements deal correctly with variable returns to scale and multivariate data. Software projects generally exhibit variable ret...

Although outsourcing is a viable instrument to save operational costs, the majority of ERP systems is still operated in-house due to privacy, security and dependency concerns coupled with ERP’s exceptional significance for business continuity. In this abstract paper, we propose a research artefact that is planned to become an alternative option to classical in-house or off-promises operation mo...
