Enterprise Ressource Planning dans les Petites et Moyennes Entreprises : Revue de Littérature et Etude Bibliographique

Ce document a pour but, tout d'abord, de développer un cadre méthodologique pour mener une revue de la littérature complète, qui s’intéresse à un phénomène empirique basé sur une grande quantité d'articles publiés. Il fournit une bibliographie annotée des publications ERP dans les PME, publiées dans les principales revues et conférences sur les systèmes d'information et bien d’autres. L’utilité d’une étude documentaire est de comprendre l'état actuel d’un domaine de recherche, afin de démontrer comment l'intérêt académique qui s’intéresse à ce domaine de recherche a évolué dans le temps et atteint une certaine maturité. L’article se base essentiellement sur la synthèse des travaux passés et l’identification des connaissances manquantes avant de proposer une vision des futures recherches à réaliser. L’objectif principal de ce travail est d’établir un bilan de la recherche ERP dans les PME, permettant de dévoiler les thèmes abordés, les domaines de préoccupation et les approches théorique et méthodologique mobilisées. Cet article servira par la suite comme bibliographie complète des articles publiés au cours de la période étudiée. Il traite l’ensemble des travaux publiés dans diverses revues sur les différents thèmes de la planification des ressources d'entreprise (ERP) au sein des petites et moyennes entreprises entre janvier 2000 et décembre 2017. Avec un total de (218) articles qui sont passés en revue

Critical Success Factors to Implement Enterprise Resource Planning in Morocco Large Companies’ Case Study

To increase their performances, many companies have chosen to adopt ERP solutions in their information system including Moroccan companies. This paper attempts to identify important Critical Success Factors (CSF) impacting Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) implementation in Moroccan context. The results presented are based on a case study (action research) in several large Moroccan companies: the business core related to those companies is different: industry, telecommunications, public administration, real estate, etc. This study concerns several kinds of projects: new implementation of an ERP, major extensions of an existing ERP or upgrade to a global new release. The factors dressed are spread over different phases of the implementation life cycle and discuss several aspects: scope, sponsoring, standard versus customizations, resistance to change / resisting forces, cultural aspects, operations and values system

Difficulties Related to the Implementation of ERPs in Morocco: Focus on Change Management

The implementation of ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) in the world represents today a critical vector for introducing major changes in the companies. The large Moroccan companies took great part in this trend with several implementations since 1995 using various products: Oracle Applications, SAP (Systems, Applications and Products for data processing), Odoo, etc. However, Enterprise Resource Planning projects implementation in Morocco don’t accord enough interest for the change management discipline throughout the life cycle of the project. This represents a major obstacle to the success of this kind of strategic projects in terms of Project Management discipline. In this paper, we focus on this phenomenon by studying two large Moroccan companies related to two distinct business sectors, using Action Research methodology. This study allowed us listing different missing parts in change management based on a literature review confronted with a reality experienced in a Moroccan context. Finally, we try to identify the main difficulties in change management by classifying them in different levels

Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference of Economics and Management (CIREG 2016) Volume I

This book brings together papers presented at the 3rd Conference of Research in Economics and Management (CIREG) held in Morocco in May 2016. With a focus on the challenges of SMEs and innovative solutions, they highlight the contribution of researchers in the fields of business and management, with all their micro and macro-economic aspects. They shed light on the universal scientific vision of the importance of SMEs with answers relevant to their local context and adapted to their specific national situation. The relevance of SME research lies in its heuristic value of analyzing change, rather than in constructing a category, a particularly useful empirical concept. This first volume is focused on economic issues

"DisChoco: A platform for distributed constraint programming"

International audienceOpen-source platforms are very useful for development and experimentation in constraint programming. However, until recently, no such platform existed for distributed constraint programming. This paper presents DisChoco, a platform for distributed constraint programming. DisChoco is a Java library implemented using the Choco solver and simple agent communication infrastructure (SACI). DisChoco can be used for simulation of a multi-agents environment on a single Java virtual machine, or performed in an environment physically distributed for a realistic use. DisChoco takes into account agent with a complex local problem, message loss, message corruption, and message delay. The implementation of DisChoco was made to offer a modular software architecture which accepts extensions easily. This paper presents the software architecture and illustrates how to implement a specific protocol
