Dependent Variables

This study aims to unravel the factors that might have the potential to facilitate or hinder the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP )system in the Yemen Organizations. Methods were done by interviewing 197 respondents from some Yemen organizations. The results of this study found significant positive correlationsbetween the intention to use and easiness of the ERP system. Several dependent variables were also obtained. Moreover, thecurrent study obtained the importance of human factors in thecontext of ERP.

The Status

Efficient use of enterprise resource planning systems is the only way to achieve competitive advantage in many industries. However, many reports indicate high failure rate of ERP implementation projects and the lack of access to benefits and advantages that enterprises have expected from ERP deployment. Managers are concerned about being ready to deploy such a system. Despite its enormous cost, implementing enterprise resource planning systems fail in practice. Accordingly, this study aims at providing a model for assessing the readiness of organizations for the implementation of ERP by using fuzzy expert systems. The model is composed of six fuzzy expert systems which are designed at two levels. The first five levels are the factors affecting the readiness of a system to produce the scores for an output. These outputs have been used as input to the final system for assessing the organization's readiness to implement the ERP system. In the design of each fuzzy expert system, fuzzy triangular membership functions were applied that had been selected for increasing the efficiency and ease of use. The Results of the model and its use in Shahid Ghazi Pharmaceutical Company show the status of readiness of the proposed model for ERP implementation. Moreover, the model shows the status of the organizations with regard to each of the factors affecting the implementation of the ERP system.

Design Perspective

This chapter sketches an Organization Design perspective called “Modern Socio-technical Design”, and subsequently discusses the implementation of Enterprise Resource Planning Systems from this perspective. The authors argue that the praxis of ERP-system implementation is often at odds with socio-technical insights, leading to various problems that ERP-end users are confronted with. These tensions may not be inevitable, but simply result from taken-for-granted organization assumptions underlying ERP-implementation praxis. The sociotechnical insights are intended to help practitioners reflect on ERP-implementation praxis, and discuss to what extent an ERP-system is appropriate and if so, where socio-technically inspired choices may be made within configuration processes.

Enterprise Resource Planning Systems

ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems consist normally of ERP modules managing sale, production and procurement in private businesses. ERP systems may also have modules for special lines of business or modules for the different sectors of E-Government. However, the ERP systems of today use a common database and therefore, it is normally only possible to use modules supported by the ERP supplier. This limits the possibilities for special lines of business like the different sectors of E-Government. It is normally not possible to use the traditional ACID (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation and Durability) properties across heterogeneous ERP modules and therefore, it is not possible to integrate such modules without inconsistency and anomaly problems. That is, the users cannot trust the data they are reading and even worse they can undermine the validity of the databases if they update the databases by using such invalid information. However, it is possible to use so called relaxed ACID properties. That is, it should, from a user point of view, look as if the traditional ACID properties were implemented, and therefore, the users can trust the data they are reading and cannot do anything wrong by using this data.
