BPR ‐ beyond industrial engineering?

Abstract

Industrial engineering has been around for 50 years and has stood the test of time: BPR for less than ten. BPR has emerged because the world itself is now different ‐ the pressures on organisations are much greater, having to compete in a global economy. Attempts to describe key features of BPR and factors affecting its successful implementation. Suggests ways in which BPR and IE may need to work together: the two are complementary rather than competitive.
