Enterprise
systems
have long played an important role in businesses of various
sizes. With
the increasing complexity of today’s business relationships,
specialized
application systems are being used more and more. Moreover,
emerging technologies
such as artificial intelligence are becoming accessible for
enterprise
systems and entail new requirements. This raises the question of
the future
role of enterprise systems. In particular, the integrative,
all-encompassing
approach of early system versions is in question.
In order for
ERP
systems to continue to fulfill their essential role, the systems
must adapt
to the new needs of organizations and respond to the
technological advancements
in the market. From an architectural perspective, this requires
adaptations
at all major architectural levels of ERP systems architecture.
From an
organizational perspective, new solutions for technical
integration and
interoperability are needed. With regards to the selection and
implementation
process, new topics such as cloud-based operation models
increase the complexity
of decision making.
This
minitrack
covers topics that contribute to the future role of enterprise
systems.
This include but are not limited to the following topics:
- Architecture
of
enterprise systems
- Reference
models
for enterprise systems and processes
- Industry-specific
adoption of enterprise systems
- Enterprise
architecture
management (system & interface management)
- Interoperability
of enterprise systems with the firm and along the
supply-chain
- Decision
support
(data-driven decisions)
- User
interface
— usability, personalization of enterprise systems, mobile
ERP, new forms
of interaction (e.g., speech recognition in ES)
- Decision
support
for managerial decision on enterprise systems (e.g., cloud
vs. on-premises
vs. hybrid)
- Artificial
intelligence
and machine learning in enterprise systems (sales,
procurement, logistics,
financial accounting, master data management)
- ERP as
(software)
platforms: openness of ERP systems, new level of modularity
of enterprise
systems (extensions)
- Processes
and
workflows in enterprise systems (workflow management systems
as part of
enterprise systems)
- Database
approaches
in enterprise systems
Submissions
may include, but are not limited to research papers (conceptual,
theoretical,
and empirical studies), as well as case studies, and best
practices with
managerial guidance.
Papers
accepted
for presentation at HICSS in the minitrack with the potential to
shape
the future role of enterprise systems will be considered for
fast-track
submission to the AIS Transactions on Enterprise Systems Journal
(https://enterprise-systems.net/).
