Item Open Access Benefit realisation modelling for ERP systems using system dynamics(Cranfield University Press, 2013-09-19) Badewi, Amgad; Shehab, Essam; Peppard, JoeAchieving success for ERP systems is not only concerned with deploying the technology on time and on budget but also concerned with the level of achieving targeted benefits from the system. This level of achieving targeted benefits can be managed indirectly through managing the organisational attitude toward the new system. Thus, the aim of this paper is to use the System Dynamics (SD) to reveal how managing organisational attitude leads to an increase in the level of system use and, therefore, leads to a decrease in the level of resistance to change to new system for achieving high level of performance. SD is used to investigate the causal loops of organisational attitude, perceptions, behaviours, and policies taken to achieve desired benefits. The ability to manage an organisational attitude toward ERP is an important factor for achieving desired levels of benefits is the main conclusion of this research.Item Open Access Cost, benefit, and financial risk (COBEFR) of ERP implementation(Cranfield University Press, 2013-09-19) Badewi, Amgad; Shehab, EssamThe purpose of this research is to develop Benefits, Costs, and Financial Risks (CoBeFR) model to show and measure the impact of ERP related decisions, such as degree of business process re-engineering and the level of hardware investment, on the organisational financial value (OFV). OFV is based on current time value of money (i.e. interest rate), financial risk, and net cash flows emerged from ERP system. Financial risk, the sensitivity of the organisation net profit to changes in market conditions, is affected by organisational adoption of ERP system. The main conclusion is that there are interrelated impacts of ERP implementation decisions to the organisational financial value. Therefore, decision maker should look at the implementation decision from a new perspective which is Organisational Financial Value (OFV) perspective
