PJM 440 Colorado State Global Module 2 Business Process Reengineering Discussion

 

Option #1: Consulting in Business Process Reengineering

Assume the role of consultant to a large organization that is considering business process reengineering for one of its national divisions. The organization has not undertaken this type of reengineering before and needs your help to know what to expect. Write an academic paper, meaning APA, current scholarly research, and citations and references, which may be used by the management stakeholders to understand the following:

  1. Why, according to research, should the organization consider business process reengineering, meaning what advantages would business process reengineering likely give the organization?
  2. What is the tested business process reengineering “process” that you as the consultant would have the organization follow?
  3. Who, according to research of a typical organization, will be required from the organization according to your research into a typical organization and what roles will they play?
  4. What problems, risks, failures, according to research, may result and what treatment options are needed to offset those concerns?

Note: Remember that opinion is not valuable unless it is based on academic research, i.e., current scholarly research (published in academic journals in the most recent 5 years), and the paper clearly attributes the information using citations and references.

Submission:

  • Prepare a 3- to 4-page paper (not including the required title and reference pages and any appendices you may find necessary) detailing and compiling the specifics to items 1-4 above.
  • Support your paper with a minimum of three current (published in the most recent five years) scholarly sources from the CSU-Global Library, in addition to any course textbooks, required or recommended readings, or lecture material you decide to use.
  • Format your entire paper according to the CSU Global Writing Center (Links to an external site.).
  • Be clear, concise, and focused. Be sure to properly organize your writing and after the title on page 2, include an introduction with a thesis and mapping for your paper; headings/subheadings for the body of your work; analysis and recommendations (if applicable); a conclusion; list of references; and any appendices.

Option #2: Failure or success of business process reengineering

Some say that only failing businesses try business process reengineering and so business process reengineering is doomed to fail. Write an academic paper, meaning APA, current scholarly research, and citations and references to cover the following:

  1. What type of organizations use business process reengineering and what is the current state of businesses’ success or failure at the inception of business process reengineering (i.e., are the businesses in trouble)?
  2. Why do businesses choose business process reengineering and what is the success or failure rate of business process reengineering for those who employ it?
  3. What causes business process reengineering to fail?
  4. Is business process reengineering employed widely today or is it a past management fad from the past (if a past trend, what do businesses choose to do today to improve processes)?

Note: Remember that opinion is not valuable unless it is based on academic research, i.e., current scholarly research (published in academic journals in the most recent 5 years), and the paper clearly attributes the information using citations and references.

Submission:

  • Prepare a 3- to 4-page paper (not including the required title and reference pages and any appendices you may wish to include) detailing and compiling the specifics to items 1-4 above.
  • Support your paper with a minimum of three current (published in the most recent five years) scholarly sources from the CSU Global Library, in addition to any course textbooks or lecture material you decide to use.
  • Format your entire paper according to the CSU Global Writing Center (Links to an external site.).
  • Be clear, concise, and focused. Be sure to properly organize your writing and after the title on page 2, include an introduction with a thesis and mapping for your paper; headings/subheadings for the body of your work; analysis and recommendations (if applicable); a conclusion; list of references; and any appendices.
