SEIC2 566 1992 • • — SYSTEMS INTEGRATION OPPORTUNfTIES IN RE-ENGINEERING EUROPE, 1992 INPUT Abstract Historically, information systems have been developed by the internal specialist departments of organisations, which have concentrated on the automation of existing business procedures. However, this approach has led to widespread dissatisfaction and information systems that made a negligible contribution to the competitiveness of the parent organisation. In the present climate, senior executives seek a real contribution to the enterprise from their investment in information systems (IS). This can only be achieved if a more proactive approach is taken to IS strategy. Accordingly, a number of vendors are complementing their systems integration capability with management consultancy skills. These skills enable the vendor to assist their clients in tasks such as competitive benchmarking and business process redesign prior to any systems devel- opment activity. This report analyses the emerging need for business process re-engineering and its impact on the European systems integra- tion market. SEIC2 e1993by INPUT. ReproductionProhibited.
