RECENT ASSIGNMENT

1. Assignment
Read the case study ‘Using a Case Study to test the three key social enablers in ERP implementation’.
The key findings are shallow clichés. They are:
• Strong and committed leadership at the top level
• Open and honest communication
• Balanced and empowered teams
These items disclose the biases of the researchers and do little to assist with understanding what makes an ERP project successful.
Do some research on ERP implementation. Identify other factors which may account for the success of ERP implementation.
Discuss the factors you have identified and explain why they are more reliable than the clichés in the original article.
