Implementation of SOA-based ERP-systems
Project Description
Service-oriented ERP systems promise to allow for a fine-grained alignment of IT with specific functional requirements of an organization's business processes. In this regard, studies particularly emphasize the potential to flexibly exchange services by means of market-based transactions. One important aspect widely neglected, however, is the challenge of governing the implementation processes of this new kind of information systems. The expected flexibility and higher degrees of profitability come with an increased complexity. This research project focuses on different aspects of the implementation process of SOA-based ERP systems and contributes to several open questions in this field.
Relevance to Liechtenstein
Service-oriented architectures enable a fine-grained adaptation of information systems. Accordingly, SOA allows large as well as small and medium sized enterprises to flexibly design their information systems, which is why the project results are interesting to various companies in Liechtenstein.
