Description
The purpose of this research is to present an approach for assessing the status of the alignment between organizations and ERP systems quantitatively. An Issue-based ERP assessment model is proposed and tested with empirical data from a Japanese company. The results prove the feasibility of the model and reveal the variation of business-IT alignment in a visualized way. It is also indicated the utilization of the Issue-based ERP assessment model is a more convenient method to help the organizations to pinpoint the status of the business-IT alignment. One major implication of this research is to provide an easy assessment method which may encourage organizations to do evaluations regularly. From the academic perspective, this model provides a new approach to evaluating the assimilation of organizations and ERP systems.
