Reengineering Organizations in Integrated Transport Management Systems

Purpose: The article sequentially presents elements of technological development in transportation and organization reengineering. Design/Methodology/Approach: Τhe article aims to analyse integrated transport systems, with an emphasis on their integration as a part of reengineering transport needs, and to develop data flow models. Accordingly, the following research problem was formulated: Should structural business modelling techniques be subject to organization reengineering and teaching for future transport managers? Obtaining answers to the above questions required the application of qualitative methods. The synthesis method and literature analysis were used for research purposes. Findings: Ιt characterizes Data Flow Diagram (DFD) models and describes the stages of DFD modelling. It was stated that the indicated techniques can be used both for the analysis of an existing system, to determine its functions, effectiveness, and efficiency, as well as for collecting, describing, and modelling functions and data for a newly implemented system. Practical Implications: Reengineering can be used to support the activities of transport managers by providing timely, competition- and distortion-proof information representing an appropriate level of information, as well as defending against various types of threats. Originality/Value: A dynamically changing environment, progressing globalization, increasing intensity of competition, and threats of crisis phenomena require the development, improvement, and implementation of innovative management systems. The challenge lies in skilfully selecting and implementing a management concept that is closely related to the company's tradition, current state of enterprise, and external factors resulting from the system's environment.
