Performance analysis by MES. How does it affect decision making?
With this research we want to identify the changes in the quality of the decisions made due to MES software implementations. These changes are not solely the increase or decrease of the score on a certain KPI, but could also be (for instance) the changes in behavior and the decision making process. This goal is the basis of our research question: “What is the effect of performance analysis by MES on decision making on production in a manufacturing company?”.

Heeft Business Intelligence effect op Business Rules (Management)?
Business Intelligence is een kreet die vaak genoemd wordt als het gaat om procesverbetering. Veel bedrijven noemen Business Intelligence als (één van de) tools om hun (proces-)prestaties inzichtelijk te krijgen. Echter, Business Intelligence is niet enkel een tool, maar een proces (Beek, 2006). Business rules worden gezien als de regels waarmee processen bepaald worden en dus (mede) bepalen wat de resultaten van dit proces en het bedrijf zijn.

Veel bedrijven noemen Business Intelligence als (één van de) tools om hun (proces-)prestaties inzichtelijk te krijgen. Echter, Business Intelligence is niet enkel een tool, maar een proces (Beek, 2006). Business rules worden gezien als de regels waarmee processen bepaald worden en dus (mede) bepalen wat de resultaten van dit proces en het bedrijf zijn.
Waar velen schrijven over de relatie tussen Business Rules (Management) en Business Intelligence als een enkelvoudige relatie waarin business rules van invloed zijn op Business Intelligence (Bosch, 2011; McMillen, 2009), heeft niemand het over de andere zijde waarbij Business Intelligence van invloed is op Business Rules Management.
Kijkend naar de definities van beiden, rijst het vermoeden dat Business Intelligence kan dienen als input voor business rules en het management daarvan. Zoals eerder vermeld, is deze zijde van de relatie tussen beide begrippen nog niet beschreven. Dit paper is geschreven om deze relatie tussen Business Intelligence en business rules (management) te leggen en te beschrijven, met een specifieke blik op de impact van Business Intelligence op business rules (management). -
Van data naar informatie: Hoe?
Binnen organisaties is er een steeds grotere behoefte aan informatie. De achterliggende data is er immers al: vanuit huidige systemen, vanuit oude systemen of zelfs vanuit externe bronnen (zoals bijvoorbeeld het CBS). Aan enkel data heeft men echter niets! Om het bruikbaar te maken moet het omgezet worden naar informatie middels Business Intelligence (BI). Een goede definitie van BI is daarom ook “..het verzamelen en structureren van bedrijfsgegevens zodat hieruit informatie wordt gewonnen voor…
Binnen organisaties is er een steeds grotere behoefte aan informatie. De achterliggende data is er immers al: vanuit huidige systemen, vanuit oude systemen of zelfs vanuit externe bronnen (zoals bijvoorbeeld het CBS). Aan enkel data heeft men echter niets! Om het bruikbaar te maken moet het omgezet worden naar informatie middels Business Intelligence (BI). Een goede definitie van BI is daarom ook “..het verzamelen en structureren van bedrijfsgegevens zodat hieruit informatie wordt gewonnen voor het beheren en bijsturen van processen” (Computable, 2010).
Een goede transformatie van de data naar informatie is dus belangrijk. Hiervoor zijn 2 verschillende methoden. In mijn optiek is een combinatie van beiden de ideale oplossing voor vrijwel iedere organisatie! -
E-Business considerations on the business side
The implementation of an e-Business solution has effect on both the IT and the business side of a company. These effects touch the strategic level, as well as the operational level of both pillars. A lot of papers have been written about aligning both pillars on a strategic or operational level with each other. The strategic fit of these pillars was also discussed numerously. In this paper, we will focus on aligning the operational side of the two pillars. We have operationalized a framework…
The implementation of an e-Business solution has effect on both the IT and the business side of a company. These effects touch the strategic level, as well as the operational level of both pillars. A lot of papers have been written about aligning both pillars on a strategic or operational level with each other. The strategic fit of these pillars was also discussed numerously. In this paper, we will focus on aligning the operational side of the two pillars. We have operationalized a framework that addresses points of focus that occur and should be mentioned when implementing an e-Business solution. We validated this framework by reviewing it with an expert. These findings are presented in the validation section of the paper, followed by the conclusion which contains suggestions for further research.
