Sustainable development for traditional inhabitants of the Torres Strait region : proceedings of the Torres Strait Baseline Study Conference, Kewarra Beach, Cairns, Queensland, 19-23 November 1990

In July 1989 the Prime Minister of Australia, the Rt. Hon. R.J.L. Hawke, MP,announced, as part of his statement on the environment, which was later published as Our County, Our Future, that the Australian Government would fund a four year environmental study of the Torres Strait marine environment. This study, the Torres Strait Baseline Study, was instigated in response to concerns expressed by Torres Strait Islanders, commercial fishermen and scientists, about possible effects on the marine environment of the Torres Strait from mining operations in the Fly River catchment area of Papua New Guinea

The role of IT in Business Process Reengineering

South African organisations are facing increasing demands stemming from growing competition, fast changing technologies and global trends and pressures. The methods and management structures enabled these organisations to make effective use of information technology (IT) during the 70s and 80s, are currently proving to be inadequate. IT has extended into the organization and beyond the IS department's control, and is accordingly expected to support entire business processed. As such an increasing number of organisations have decided to use business process reengineering (BPR) as the primary vehicle for organizational transformation. Because of the complexity of the BPR process, a failure can be very costly in terms of time and money. BPR literature is full of success and failure stories that identify various critical success factors. However, most studies do not identify the correct use of IT as a critical success factor. In this paper, we present our research findings on the identified critical success factors and the important role of IT, within BPR. Next, we present the key critical success factors as identified by current BPR literature. We then present the results of our survey of South African businesses and their evaluation of the identified critical success factors, and especially the role IT should play in the BPR process. Finally, we present a framework which focuses on the role of IT in BPR
