Opis

Enterprise reengineering can provide dramatic competitive improvements for manufacturing. This book establishes enterprise reengineering as an approach that enables manufacturing enterprises to achieve fit between market requirements and operations capabilities. Enterprise reengineering is a model-based and strategy driven approach that enables manu­facturers to realise the “soft” or infrastructural aspects of an operations strategy. To support such reengineering efforts, enterprises are viewed not only from a process perspective but also from a resource, materials, information, organisational, and control perspective. Modelling and analysing enterprises from these perspectives can support their effort to implement best practices, and ensure that the practices are combined in a way that supports the overall business strategy. The major contribution of this book is an enterprise reengineering methodology, which includes strategic planning, and operations mapping, analysis, design, and imple­mentation.
