BilkentMBA2010, Lessons learned, week 2, Cemil Kanat Sarısoy

Enterprise architecture affected me mostly in the second week.. Especially, the connection and meaningfulness between the ERP and EA makes sense on me.. Yeliz Eseryel and Nancy Wolf's "Enterprise Architecture as a context for ERP implementation" article about the EA and its relationships with ERP, in addition to Mr. Scott's EA cube enlights the situation for me in an excellent manner. The article expresses that Enterprise Architecture has theoritacally and methodologically roots in strategic, Business and technology planning. Even this definition we can easily comprehend that EA should have much correlations with ERP. Then, it has. EA includes informations, applications, infrasutructure, products and services. it is integrated with the concepts of database, ERP modules, data translation, strategic goals and infrasutructure that ERP is consisted.

EA is a perfect tool to discover your ERP system's usefulness or which ERP system can be useful for the company. In terms of proccessing the change management, EA and ERP works for you together positively. So it supports you twice. Consequently, I think that, EA is a good friend and supporter of ERP.

Relevantly, if it is essential to point out the Organizational Change Management, I can firstly express its components: Security/role development, communications, Super user development, training and business process management and improvement.. As it seems, it is about an organized strategy and development in different modules which emphasize on occuring an efficient and effective skill upgrading management systems for different types of corporations.

Finally, for this week, I want to mention shortly about some analysis that are the strongest ways to implement your ERP system. Those are SWOT analysis and GAP analysis. SWOT means STRENGTHES, WEAKNESSES, OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS.. The SWOT helps you to define your strategy and your real purposes.. GAP analysis is in case give you an opportunity to be conscios about the organizations actual performance in return to potential performance.. It is perfect for the usage of knowing about industrial and market potential..
