Business Processes and Information Systems

Business processes

• Manner in which work is organized,


coordinated, and focused to produce a
valuable product or service

• Concrete work flows of material,


information, and knowledge—sets of
activities

2.52
ENTERPRISE APPLICATIONS

Business Processes and Information Systems

• Unique ways to coordinate work,


information, and knowledge

• Ways in which management chooses


to coordinate work

2.53
ENTERPRISE APPLICATIONS

Business Processes and Information Systems

Information systems help organizations

• Achieve great efficiencies by automating


parts of processes

• Rethink and streamline processes

2.54
ENTERPRISE APPLICATIONS

Examples of Business Processes

• Manufacturing and production:


Assembling product, checking quality,
producing bills of materials

• Sales and marketing: Identifying


customers, creating customer awareness,
selling

2.55
ENTERPRISE APPLICATIONS

Examples of Business Processes

• Finance and accounting: Paying


creditors, creating financial statements,
managing cash accounts

• Human Resources: Hiring employees,


evaluating performance, enrolling
employees in benefits plans

2.56
ENTERPRISE APPLICATIONS

Business Processes and Information Systems

Cross-Functional Business Processes

• Transcend boundary between sales,


marketing, manufacturing, and research
and development

• Group employees from different functional


specialties to a complete piece of work

Example: Order Fulfillment Process

ENTERPRISE APPLICATIONS

Traditional View of the Systems

• Within the business: There are functions,


each having its uses of information systems

• Outside the organization’s


boundaries: There are customers and
vendors

Functions tend to work in isolation

Benefits of Enterprise Systems

• Firm structure and organization: One


organization

• Management: Firm-wide knowledge-


based management processes

• Technology: Unified platform

• Business: More efficient operations and


customer-driven business processes

2.63
ENTERPRISE APPLICATIONS

Challenges of Enterprise Systems

• Difficult to build: Require fundamental


changes in the way the business operates

• Technology: Require complex pieces of


software and large investments of time,
money, and expertise

• Centralized organizational
coordination and decision making:
Not the best way for the firms to operate
2.64
ENTERPRISE APPLICATIONS

Supply Chain Management (SCM)

Supply Chain Management (SCM)


• Close linkage and coordination of
activities involved in buying, making, and
moving a product

• Integrates supplier, manufacturer,


distributor, and customer logistics time

• Reduces time, redundant effort, and


inventory costs

2.65
ENTERPRISE APPLICATIONS

Supply Chain Management (SCM)

Supply Chain

• Network of organizations and business


processes

• Helps in procurement of materials,


transformation of raw materials into
intermediate and finished products

2.66
ENTERPRISE APPLICATIONS
Supply Chain Management

Figure 2-15
2.67
ENTERPRISE APPLICATIONS

Supply Chain Management (SCM)

• Helps in distribution of the finished


products to customers

• Includes reverse logistics - returned items


flow in the reverse direction from the
buyer back to the seller

2.68
ENTERPRISE APPLICATIONS

How Information Systems Facilitate Supply Chain Management

• Decide when, what to produce, store, move


• Rapidly communicate orders
• Communicate orders, track order status
• Check inventory availability, monitor levels
• Track shipments
• Plan production based on actual demand
• Rapidly communicate product design change
• Provide product specifications
• Share information about defect rates, returns

2.69
ENTERPRISE APPLICATIONS

Supply Chain Management (SCM)

Limitations:

• Inefficiencies can waste as much as 25%


of company’s operating costs

• Bullwhip Effect: Information about the


demand for the product gets distorted as
it passes from one entity to next

2.70
ENTERPRISE APPLICATIONS

Supply Chain Management (SCM)

• Supply chain planning system: Enables


firm to generate forecasts for a product and
to develop sourcing and a manufacturing
plan for the product

• Supply chain execution system:


Manages flow of products through
distribution centers and warehouses

2.71
ENTERPRISE APPLICATIONS

Collaborative Commerce

• Uses digital technologies to enable


multiple organizations to collaboratively
design, develop, build, move, and manage
products

• Increases efficiencies in reducing product


design life cycles, minimizing excess
inventory, forecasting demand, and
keeping partners and customers informed

2.72
