Abstract

An ERP implementation takes many years to complete and requires a large amount of IT investment and theireffectiveness is hard to evaluate. Companies implement ERP systems to integrate the business processes of acompany, and help organizations obtain a competitive advantage. In each ERP implementation stage, BusinessProcess Reengineering (BPR) plays different important roles. This study examined the process problems (systemprocess / business process), BPR and performance of ERP systems by using the questionnaire survey andAVOVA analysis. We also examined the relationship between degree of BPR and ERP system performance usingregression analysis.
