Business Strategy, Business Processes, and Business Systems (3 Pages)
by Olin Thompson
Jul 31, 2004 Abstract : Business strategy, a road map telling us how the business plans to be successful, does not guarantee success. Strategy execution requires business processes that do what the strategy calls for--and do it well. In today's automated world, these business processes rely on business systems. Therefore, a direct link exists between the success of business strategy and business systems. Poor systems are a frequent reason for the failure of a business strategy.
