Modern
enterprises operate in ever-growing dynamic, changing, and competitive
environment. These factors demand from modern
enterprises an agility quality,
but what is agility when considering such a complex phenomenon as an
enterprise. This thesis tries to
develop a generic conceptual model for defining
an agile enterprise from a socio-technical point of view, which
resulted in a
framework
for designing an agile enterprise. The proposed
framework is based on
literature review and interview with industry experts. An extensive
literature
study is conducted with the purpose of eliciting notions, properties,
and
concepts surrounding enterprise agility. A literature
based conceptual framework
is synthesized by analysis of notions, concepts, and properties
attributed to
enterprise agility, which clarifies
interrelation between different concepts
and aspects of agility. The proposed framework separates different
aspects of
enterprise agility.
Then, the framework is validated and modified
through nine semi-structured expert interviews to conform to the real
world. Finally,
“enterprise ontology,” “normalized systems,” and
“control organizations” are discussed
as necessary theoretical foundations for addressing
the different aspects of
the proposed framework.
