| Description |
Elevare Corporation (a pseudonym given by the author to protect the company’s identity) survived almost three years of operation without the existence of a formal information systems plan. However, it eventually encountered a number of problems in its production systems that prompted management to probe for the actual cause. The company decided to hire experienced IT consultants who, in turn, proposed fundamental changes in Elevare’s business processes and structure. One area considered for reengineering was the company’s management of its systems development and production environments. This paper discusses the details of that specific reengineering effort and how it addressed some of the problems that have confounded the company. The analysis does not attempt to introduce any new or breakthrough idea in the area of business process reengineering (BPR). Rather, this is a case study of how BPR can help even small and fledgling companies make radical improvements in their operations.
