3.  Reengineering is a complete restructuring of business processes to create positive
changes in current performance measurements that are critical to operations
management (Olorunniwo,1998)
 Business process : a collection of value-adding work activities having a preferred order,
an identifiatable beginning, and an end. Inputs and output of a business process are
usually well-defined, and the activitiesare usually performed by cross functional teams.
 Re-engineering, just like restructuring, is a method of revolutionary change and,
therefore, embodies all general features of such radical changes (Dubrovski, 2005)

4. RESTRUCTURING
 Most frequently the process of integrating
connected corporations will only be possible by
using revolutionary methods of change, as which
one can classify restructuring and business
process reengineering.
 This process, representing a transition from the
existing structure to a new one (program-market,
manufacturing, technological, financial,
organization, personnel, ownership, ecological,
developmental) which enables greater
successfulness and efficiency of corporate
operations, is designated as restructuring.
 Restructuring is one of the methods of
revolutionary changes and a way to achieve
renewal of the corporation as a result of strategic
alliances.
RE-ENGINEERING
 Re-engineering, just like restructuring, is a
method of revolutionary change and, therefore,
embodies all general features of such radical
changes.
 Re-engineering brings about ‘a fundamental
rethinking and radical redesign of business
processes to achieve dramatic improvements in
critical, contemporary measures of performance,
such as cost, quality, service, and speed.
 Focus on corporate processes, radical changes,
dramatic improvements and a multidisciplinary
approach.
 Focus on corporate processes which can be
interpreted as a set of connected activities which
engage an input (from suppliers), transform it
and produce an output (for the customer).

6. Case Study :
Tesco-Homeplus
Virtual Shop in
Korea
and
The Counter Move of
E-Mart

7.  People in South Korea work one of the longest hours in
the world, they are very busy.
 For people in South Korea, shopping is not an activity
people would like to utilize their free time in.
 Tesco’s South Korean network of shops, called Home
Plus, have grown to become the country’s second-largest
supermarket after E-Mart since launching in 1999.
 Being number two is never enough for Tesco, they want
to be number 1 in South Korea.
 They came to an answer, expanding their online sales
rather than spending a lot of money opening new
shops.
 The opportunity : South Korea has more than 10 million
smartphone users in a population of less than 50
million, it made sense to look at mobile shopping as
much as websites for desktops.

8.  Homeplus plastered the glass walls of subway stations with
pictures of their products, laid out just as they’d be in a
traditional shop.
 The ‘shelves’ featured QR codes - squares filled with a black
and white pattern, unique to the product in question, they’re a
more versatile successor to the bar code.
 This QR codes are scanned by the traveller’s mobile phone,
building up a shopping basket in the few minutes before the
train arrives.
 If they haven’t got the apps on their mobile phone, they can
just simply download free Homeplus mobile apps through
application store
 Homplus build an e-commerce website and also mobile apps to
complete the brand new shopping experience
 If their train comes before your basket is complete, they can
carry on shopping without the pictures and codes if you wish.
 Tho goods will be delivered timely straight to their houses
