Unternehmensmodellierung

Sie können den Dynamic Enterprise Modeler (DEM) verwenden, bevor das Informationssystem in den Echtbetrieb geht. Mit dem DEM-Tool erstellen Sie Geschäftsmodelle, mit deren Hilfe die ERP-Anwendungspakete implementiert werden. Wenn ein Unternehmen ein neues Informationssystem mithilfe von ERP-Anwendungen implementiert, können Sie den Auswahlprozess mit dem Dynamic Enterprise Modeler strukturieren und die eigentliche Implementierung und Optimierung des Systems durchführen. Dabei werden die folgenden Phasen unterschieden:

  1. Auswahlphase: In dieser Phase wird eine Vorstellung von der Implementierung und Optimierung der ERP-Module entwickelt, die für Ihr neues Informationssystem erforderlich sind.
  2. Implementierungsphase: In dieser Phase werden die ERP-Module nach Ihren Vorgaben implementiert.
  3. Optimierungsphase: In dieser Phase wird das operative Informationssystem optimiert.

During the three different phases, the Dynamic Enterprise Modeler plays several roles. It functions as a decision support system in these cases:

  • When you develop a vision on how to functionally structure an organization.
  • When you develop a vision on how to organize the business processes of the organization.
  • When you develop a vision on how to integrate the information system with these business processes.

The DEM-tool assists during the implementation of the ERP packages, based on the vision which was developed by means of the Dynamic Enterprise Modeler. After the information system has been implemented, the Enterprise Modeler can be used to monitor the critical success factors of an organization. These three roles are carried out in the following way. During the selection phase, the Dynamic Enterprise Modeler can function as a decision support system by visualizing the effects of decisions on the information system and its users. For example, decisions regarding business functions or business processes may affect the number of applications and other types of activities that must be implemented. In turn, this can affect the workload of the employees that must carry out the activities. During the implementation phase the Dynamic Enterprise Modeler can be used to assist in the actual implementation of the ERP and other applications in the following three ways:

  • Setting the ERP parameters and package settings.
  • Generating the ERP users based on the employees defined in DEM. These are the people who are going to utilize the ERP packages.
  • Creating the Dynamic Menu Browsers and authorizations for the employees.
