“…Several authors have approached the issue of integrating disciplines and perspectives. Burbidge et al [39] discuss integration inside a manufacturing function and across function boundaries. In particular, they note that consequences of decisions made in one function show up in other functions and thus call for an extra effort to integrate across functions.…”

As a scientific and professional discipline, the design of enterprise systems has undergone an impressive development. Today, it has achieved a well-established practice with clearly defined phases, tasks and methods. However, enterprises are challenged by increased complexity in their operations, externally imposed uncertainties and even unforeseeable events. Dynamic global operations call for speedy and effective responses to change. As a consequence, enterprises are challenged to adopt new approaches.In view of this call for probing new roads, it seems useful to examine the roots of design in an effort to re-interpret many of the original ideas. In this paper, we shall briefly study significant contributions to decision-making, systems theory, project management, behavioral science and organization theory, as well as business aspects.To further understand the nature of design, we shall discuss key features, such as purposeful intent based on a stakeholder approach, situational approach, integration of subsystems, perspectives and time horizons, the design process, and modeling.Recent developments, e.g. in design science, design thinking, managing as designing, participatory design, and agile project management, have provided a number of new approaches that in many ways represent answers to the challenges of increased uncertainty and complexity. This has led to the development of seven propositions:

“…The proposed framework of ERP integration (figure 1.) was developed after considering previous models of integration (Mathew, 1988;Bullers and Reid, 1990;Burbidge et al, 1987;Meredith and Hill, 1990;Truman, 2000).…”

Companies try to seamlessly integrate all areas of their business by adopting technologies such as business process reengineering, supply chain management, ERP and customer relationship management in an attempt to address increasing global competition. ERP is still the most used technology for enterprise integration. This paper presents a six-level framework of ERP enterprise integration and defines the prerequisite requirements for effective integration at each level. The proposed framework should provide ground for some interesting future research directions in ERP integration.

“…Integration links internal business functions such as marketing, production, and manufacturing [8] and is similar to organizational and information integration [40]. This integration originates from the need to share common goals and information and the need to communicate.…”

This research investigates the influence of five levels of ERP integration on ERP performance in different user-friendly interface groups. The five levels are systemspecification, Island of Technology, organizational, socioorganizational, and global integration. We conducted an empirical study that involved 102 ERP professionals, 52 of whom showed low demand for user-friendly interface design while the others showed high demand. The results suggest that system-specification and organizational integration significantly influence ERP performance in the low demanding user-friendly interface group, while systemspecification and socio-organizational integration significantly influence ERP performance in the high demanding user-friendly group. The research model explains 50 and 46% respectively of ERP performance in each group.
