Abstract: Companies continue to reexamine and fundamentally change the way they do business. Intense competitive pressures and a sluggish economy provide the motivation for continued efforts to "deliver more with less." Properly executed, reengineering can be an effective tool for organizations striving to operate as effectively and efficiently as possible. This study examines various methodologies of business process reengineering (BPR) and the reasons for failure of BPR efforts. Our examination of BPR research shows that companies need a BPR methodology that takes a holistic and systematic approach.

Keywords: business process reengineering, business process improvement, business process reengineering methodology, holistic approach
