The research investigates synthesized Nano-structured PbO2 using ball milling. The structure and morphology of the samples were determined in the process of milling by means of XRD and SEM. The size of particles was estimated through DLS analysis. The TEM image of the synthesized powder verifies the achievement of Nano dimensions. Design and analyses of the results using Taguchi methodology rev...

Business Process Re-engineering (BPR) does not merely represent change – it means dramatic change. BPR necessitates a complete change in organizational structures, management systems, employee responsibilities and performance measurements, incentive systems, skill development, and the use of Information Technology (IT). It affects every single aspect of doing business. At one level, BPR can be ...

Business Process Reengineering (BPR) is designed to address the BPR concepts, the technologies and the strategies for implementing business transformation and best practices by emphasizing the role of BPR in managing technology and the engineering functions. BPR was first introduced to the senior year engineering students in 2006. The course was then redesigned in 2007 to improve student learni...

The factors that lead to business process re-engineering (BPR) success in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are not clearly understood. This article reviews the main contributing factors to BPR success using a framework that considers culture, structure, technology and resource. Eight Taiwanese case studies are used to explore issues contributing to, or impeding, successful process re-e...

The field of Business Process Re-Engineering (BPR) aimed at enabling the large scale re-design of processes within organisations. BPR initiatives are by nature highly knowledge intensive activities. In this paper we argue that the knowledge based nature of BPR has not previously received sufficient recognition. We explain how BPR initiatives can be assisted through the use of techniques and too...

OBJECTIVE To determine the prevalence of biliopancreatic reflux (BPR) in patients with biliary pancreatitis (BP) undergoing elective cholecystectomy with intraoperative cholangiography (IOC) in comparison with a control group of symptomatic cholelithiasis (CG). PATIENTS AND METHODS Retrospective review of 107 consecutive BP cases. BPR was determined by IOC and liver function tests (LFT) were ...

Business Process Reengineering (BPR) is an important aspect of Business Process Management. The concept of BPR has been widely discussed in the past decade; however, it remains undetermined how prevalent the applications of Davenport, Hammer and Champy’s ideas are, especially with respect to their relevancy for actual business practice. This paper analyses which ideas of BPR actually have been ...

Business process reengineering (BPR) is one of a company's major instruments to achieve improved performance. BPR projects almost always include major efforts on developing and integrating information technology. This paper addresses how BPR and application development may be methodologically integrated, building on a product-based design of business processes and a component-based IT developme...

ciples of business process reengineering (BPR) over the past decade. However, in hindsight, it is becoming clear that results are not quite as positive as they first appeared. Recent studies suggest that the BPR success rate (i.e., the frequency with which BPR initiatives achieve, sustain, and continuously improve on performance targets) may be as low as 30%. Many executives confirm that the he...

In times of high market transparency and rapidly evolving technologies, customer requirements are constantly rising and long-term customer loyalty is hard to achieve. Therefore, enterprises have spent enormous efforts on professionalizing their customer relationship management (CRM). Complaint management holds a key position in CRM, since it helps restoring customer satisfaction and repurchase ...
