Business Process Re-engineering (BPR) is a management strategy that involves the radical redesign of business processes to achieve significant improvements in critical performance measures such as cost, quality, service, and speed. BPR aims to enhance organizational efficiency and effectiveness by fundamentally rethinking how work is done.

Key research themes

1. How can systematic exploration of business process redesign alternatives improve the efficacy of Business Process Re-engineering (BPR)?

This theme investigates methodological frameworks and conceptual models that support the creation and evaluation of alternative process designs (to-be processes) during BPR initiatives. It addresses the gap in procedural guidance on how to develop and explore diverse redesign alternatives systematically, which is crucial for ensuring that process improvements are both feasible and impactful.

Key finding: The authors develop a conceptual model of the design space for business processes based on design space exploration theory, enabling systematic exploration of redesign alternatives along multiple dimensions. This structured... Read more
Key finding: The paper introduces a method to dynamically handle deviations in process execution by injecting alternative workflow patterns sourced from a collaborative library. This approach expands traditional BPR methods by enabling... Read more
Key finding: By empirically identifying success factors and measures for process modeling projects, the study provides insights into effective modeling practices that contribute to successful process redesign outcomes. It highlights the... Read more

2. What is the impact of integrating information technology (IT), including web services and digital transformation, on the effectiveness and scope of Business Process Re-engineering?

This theme examines how modern IT advancements such as service-oriented architectures, web services, and digital transformation strategies influence the redesign, optimization, and automation of business processes within BPR. It also considers how IT expands BPR from isolated process reconfiguration to enabling flexible, integrated, and cross-organizational business processes.

Key finding: The paper presents a novel automated optimization framework using web services and evolutionary multi-objective algorithms (EMOAs) to generate and improve business process configurations. The findings demonstrate that the... Read more
Key finding: The study articulates a recursive relationship in which IT is both enabled by and a driver of business process redesign. It outlines how IT extends beyond mere automation, fundamentally reshaping how business work is... Read more

3. What are the key challenges, critical success factors, and organizational considerations in implementing Business Process Re-engineering in public and service sectors?

This theme focuses on contextual and organizational factors influencing BPR implementation success, particularly in public administration and service industries. It emphasizes the distinct challenges these sectors face such as bureaucracy, cultural resistance, quality compliance (e.g., ISO 9001), and aligning BPR initiatives with strategic and operational objectives.

Key finding: This empirical study of two European local authorities finds that while BPR initiatives improved efficiency and integrated processes, they paradoxically led to newly formed silos and entrenched institutional barriers. The... Read more
Key finding: The research empirically establishes that BPR significantly improves service delivery speed in Tanzanian service organizations, thereby enhancing operational performance. It underscores BPR’s role in aligning business... Read more
Key finding: The paper introduces IDEF 9000, a modeling technique linking business process models directly to ISO 9001 quality standards, with visual cues for redesign. The approach integrates quality management requirements within... Read more
