For advanced courses in Management Information Systems. Organizational Transformation Through Business Process Reengineering deals with both successes and failures of business process reengineering, maintaining that no one management approach is a cure-all for organizational change. This book contains 36 readings and 8 cases, and builds on the evidence gained in actual firms with various business processes, using many different business process reengineering approaches.
