“…ERP systems have been the subject of a huge number of studies (ample and categorised bibliographies can be found in Esteves and Pastor, 2001; Møller et al , 2004; Esteves and Bohorquez, 2007) that, from various theoretical perspectives, dealt with aspects such as characteristics, adoption and implementation processes (Nandhakumar et al , 2004; Butler and Pyke, 2003), favourable context elements (Sammon and Adam, 2004), project design and/or execution (Laframboise, 2002), organisational impacts (Holland et al , 1999; Westrup and Knight, 2000), forecasting of the probability of success (Magnusson et al , 2004), future outlook (Markus et al , 2000a), extension towards e‐commerce (Schubert and Leimstoll, 2004; Kemppainen, 2004; Schubert, 2003), and ERP's strategic role as the solution sought by managers for all their problems (Sammon and Adam, 2007).…”
