Abstract

Although Enterprise Engineering provides a lot of insight into the organizational construction, the insight is never a goal in itself. Insight in the organizational construction is the way to track and correct, for example, Elementary Construction Flaws (ECFs—see Chap. 5 ). Optimization of current business processes is however just one of the applications. Having an insight into the organizational construction can also help achieve better results in various other organizational areas. In this chapter I will discuss the most important ones: mergers and takeovers, reorganization, complexity control and reduction, (the implementation of) ERP packages and the implementation of methods. The common denominator of these areas of application is that it involves organizations on the move; organizations that are partially or fully subject to change. Enterprise Engineering can then be used to introduce these changes and adjustments correctly in one go, without wasting time and money on experiments—and the trial and error that comes with them—the effects of which are not clearly defined beforehand.
