business process reengineering (bpr) –the key mechanism for fundamental redesign in processes has a critical role in productivity improvement. but it needs some enablers in initiation phase including human resources acceptance. there are two behavioral theories containing factors for acceptance promotion: innovation diffusion and technology acceptance model. in this research we have used these ...

studies show that private sector organizations in many developed countries utilize business process reengineering (bpr). management theories indicate that bpr has spilled over to these countries' public organizations as well. while defining bpr and its methodology, this article focuses on characteristic features of state-owned organizations and on how these features impact the implementati...

In order to gain insight in tools and languages for business process modelling (BPM) and business process redesign (BPR), we present a framework for the evaluation of such languages and tools. The framework evaluates the quality of tools and languages for supporting all stages in a BPR project. It consists of four dimensions: functionality, ease of use, support of redesign trajectories, and gen...

This study was conducted with the aim to collect and review the work done so far in the field of BPR. Focus of this study was on providing a comprehensive overview of overall development of BPR concept, theories, models, approaches and outcomes, and success and failure causes. Design/Methodology/ Approach: study was based on secondary source i.e. published and available researches in the field ...

This paper presents a new approach for business processes redesign (BPR). The approach uses case-based reasoning techniques to model past business redesign into a case or stories based on a developed BPR framework and best practices rules. The resulting case base of past failing or successful experiences will be used to support business process designer and practitioner in redesigning or improv...

The Biocidal Products Regulation (BPR) contains several provisions for nanomaterials (NMs) and is the first regulation in the European Union to require specific testing and risk assessment for the NM form of a biocidal substance as a part of the information requirements. Ecotoxicological data are one of the pillars of the information requirements in the BPR, but there are currently no standard ...

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to illustrate the application of business process reengineering (BPR) and benchmarking principles to redesign an undergraduate course on BPR to achieve continuous improvements. The principles are applied on a course on BPR in the curriculum of engineering management (EM) program at Stevens Institute of Technology. The EM program aims to provide the student...

during implementation of business process reengineering (bpr) in many organizations, it will be less attention to previous activities and capabilities which they extract from other improvement projects in the past and this would include the costs for doing this effort and activities. considering these issues are important for bpr projects. required capabilities before implementing of bpr projec...
