Kirthana Palaniswamy is providing a final report to stakeholders on the ERP implementation project for Kurose Systems Inc. The report provides an update on the status of key tasks and deliverables, noting that some went over the planned end dates. It aims to keep stakeholders informed on the progress of integrating the supply chain, finance, and HR modules into a single ERP system to optimize the company's resources and make information more accessible.
The main goal of this presentation is to study three large information systems projects that failed over the last five years and identify the reasons of failure and derive the challenges and recommendations for IS strategists.
1) The document discusses critical success factors (CSFs) for successful enterprise resource planning (ERP) project implementation. It identifies top management support, end user involvement, user training, vendor selection, and vendor support as key CSFs from a case study of an ERP implementation at a large financial services company.
2) The case study involved implementing PeopleSoft ERP software on a big-bang basis across Asia Pacific and Japan regions. A phased approach was taken, starting with pilots in Singapore and Hong Kong.
3) The document proposes a six-factor model for ERP implementation success incorporating management, technology, operational, human resource, attitudinal, and communication factors.
This document outlines the Protorative methodology for ERP implementations. It begins with background on typical ERP projects and their high failure rates. It then discusses the drawbacks of traditional methods like ASAP that do not allow going back to earlier phases. The Theory of Constraints is introduced as focusing on identifying and exploiting constraints. The Protorative methodology is presented as a prototype + iterative approach that gathers requirements through hands-on prototyping with users. Key assumptions and scheduling are provided, with advantages noted as faster timelines, less testing needs, and better user adoption.
IT Projects are typically complex undertakings where requirements, and their gathering from often multiple stakeholders, can often be difficult. The practice of Quality Management during the course of IT Projects should, in theory, lead to better governance and overall outcomes. This paper explores four individual IT Projects and details the methods of qualification gathering, stakeholder engagement and overall Quality Management employed. Following this is a review of the common themes found in each project and a discussion on their application from a Quality Management perspective.

DOES14 - Pat Reed - Project Labor Cost Accounting for Agile ProjectsGene Kim
Pat Reed, Principal Consultant, iHoriz, Inc.
Accurate Accounting of Project Labor Cost (Capitalization vs. Expensing) on Agile projects and product development continues to be a source of confusion, waste and risk; and remains a blocker to Enterprise Agile Adoption. A myriad of associated risks (impacting Software Development and Dev Ops) include:
Loss of material benefits of utilizing the an Agile methodology (increasing the cost and risk of software development)
Blocking large scale and enterprise adoption of Agile and residual benefits
Creating inconsistencies in interpretation of project cost accounting and defeating FASB’s original intent of generating an accounting standard to protect investor confidence
Increasing the risk of over-expensing software development costs that should be capitalized
Increasing the risk of false audit findings and possible mis-reporting of financial statements
Limiting organizations and industry from fully adopting and leveraging the benefits of an Agile Software Development Methodology
Possible taxation increases, higher volatility in Profit and Loss (P&L) statements and unnecessary manual tracking of programmer and Dev Op hours
Inappropriately expensing Dev Ops and possibly causing unnecessary and inappropriate timetracking
Missed opportunities for innovation and automation
This workshop offers a practical solution that provides clear guidance to ensure that organizations understand Agile project cost accounting and consistently and appropriately account for corporate investment in software and automation.
We’ll start with a quick review of the problem and define acceptance tests and success metrics consistent with accepted government accounting standards and collectively (or in small working groups) share ideas and design a framework; applying critical thinking tools – (Mental models and Ladders of Inference to increase our understanding of how we think; and challenge mental models to effectively solve problems.
Learning Outcomes from the workshop have potential to be extensible to address related challenges of internal and external audits and remediation of findings; Sarbanes Oxley and General Computer Controls compliance; Regulatory Industry Compliance, etc.

Cisco implemented a new ERP system to replace its outdated UNIX-based systems and better support its rapid growth. It chose Oracle due to its strong manufacturing capabilities and compressed the configuration phase to implement quickly. This led to incomplete testing and performance below expectations. While Cisco's clear goals, competent team, and vendor selection showed smarts, the rushed implementation also relied on luck. Top managers can maximize success by ensuring extensive testing, training, and addressing problems early to avoid issues caused by compressed configurations.

The Case for Business Process Management in AviationFernando Moraes
The document makes the case for using business process management (BPM) in the aviation industry. It argues that for an aviation business to achieve sustained success, the absence of accidents needs to be a repeatable outcome of controlled business processes. It introduces the Aviation Business Process Framework (ABPF) which defines 33 key business process titles that are critical for an aviation organization to model in order to manage risk, quality, and business processes as an integrated system. Adopting a process-centric approach using the ABPF can help aviation organizations conduct in-depth investigations, process-based audits, and improve overall management systems.
Critical Success Factors in a BPM ImplementationNathaniel Palmer
Doug Reynolds, president of AgilityPlus Solutions, gave a presentation on the critical success factors for a business process management implementation. He stated that long term success requires having a process repository, developing competence in methods and architecture, using agile technology, ensuring an excellent transition, and implementing measurements. Traditional approaches to performance improvement like downsizing, automation, and restructuring are similar to other initiatives, but BPM also emphasizes the role of technology systems in supporting business processes.

PLM, or product lifecycle management, is a business strategy that manages a product from conception through design, manufacture, and disposal. It integrates people, processes, business systems, and product information across the entire lifecycle.

Implementing an effective PLM solution requires organizational change beyond just implementing new software.
Entrepreneurs possess characteristics that help economies and societies. They take risks to innovate factors of production and shift resources to higher productivity. Definitions describe entrepreneurs as adventurers who organize businesses and assume risks. Successful entrepreneurs enjoy challenges but are careful planners who attribute success to hard work. As leaders, entrepreneurs have qualities like selfless dedication, purpose, vision, courage, conviction, enthusiasm, integrity, and tact. They are positive thinkers who make decisions by carefully identifying problems, gathering data, analyzing options, selecting solutions, and implementing them.
Business process reengineering is the fundamental rethinking and radical redesign of business processes to achieve dramatic improvements in critical areas like cost, quality, service, and speed. It focuses on redesigning processes, not functions, departments, or tasks. Reengineering is necessary during times of high competition and demand when organizations need to be more efficient and flexible. It allows companies to eliminate unnecessary work and become more customer-focused. Examples of successful reengineering include reducing order delivery times by 40% and doubling profits by eliminating $200 million in inventory. Reengineering has also helped Indian organizations improve processes like customer ordering, manufacturing, and marketing to better meet customer needs.
