In a bid to increase their efficiency and productivity, organizations conducting their business processes manually or semi-automatically realize their need to migrate to a more effective, automated system of managing their operations. Organizations may opt to adopt an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system to achieve this purpose. As is common with organizational change, ERP implementation in organizations can be met with resistance from organizational stakeholders such as employees. Organization need to overcome this resistance and support stakeholders to understand and embrace the change. This article therefore explores how a company might effectively navigate the change-the implementation of an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system-from an organizational sense-making perspective. It also delves into various aspects of the ERP, such as its meaning, benefits, and factors that can lead to a successful or failed implementation. Additionally, this paper identifies the implementation and adoption of an ERP as a change management process requiring the steering of a change manager. Hence, information is provided on the role of a change manager, who in the change management process, acts as an interpreter by making sense to the change, in order to facilitate a successful implementation of the ERP solution. This paper provides an exposé into the utilizing of the sense-making framework as a way to navigate ERP implementation, with the aim of positively effecting the change.

Information technology (IT) departments are increasingly challenged to replace legacy applications with novel public cloud software as a service (SaaS) to innovate the organization's business processes. The resulting hybrid cloud is formed by integrating the added SaaS with existing IT services. The decision to adopt SaaS in such a hybrid cloud service composition requires appropriate consideration of the respective service level agreements (SLA) to ensure the proper execution of the supported business process. Previous studies focused strongly on cloud service selection or SLA negotiation rather than functionally desired SaaS adoption from the perspective of the hybrid cloud provider as integrator. This research paper identifies economic and technical issues in hybrid cloud arising from SaaS adoption and discusses challenges and existing solutions. A structured literature survey revealed that 52 issues in 36 identified publications are transferable to our context. These issues were classified in six different challenges. We were able to explore the relations between solution artifacts of various challenges and provide guidance for future research concerning hybrid clouds. The relations between the challenges are also found to vary in their research maturity and offer promising fields for further research.
