and strategic business excellence
with information technology (IT)
in support of a firm’s major
business processes, such as
marketing and sales, purchasing,
and manufacturing processes. This
requires a business perspective
(rather than a technical
perspective) on enterprise
systems and e-business
technologies such as ERP, SCM,
CRM, and EDI, their business
value and risk, and their
implementation. The students will
learn how to document, analyze,
improve and redesign complex
business processes and IT systems
using state of the art business
process modeling tools and
techniques. The students will
also learn how to justify and
manage the implementation of new
processes and IT systems. These
valuable skills are needed by
business process owners, business
analysts, systems analysts,
consultants, or auditors. For Questions: Alina.Chircu@mccombs.utexas.edu |
