ABSTRACT
The need for an integrated
enterprise-wide set of management information pronounced Data Warehousing
the ‘hot topic’ of the early-to-mid 1990’s, however, it became
unfashionable through the mid-to-late 1990s, with the approach of Y2K and
with it the widespread implementation of ERP systems. However, in recent
times, the re-emergence of Data Warehousing, to address the limitations
and unrealised benefits of ERP systems implementation, provides
researchers with a new challenge in understanding the ‘double learning
curve’ for an organisation, undertaking in quick succession both an ERP
systems project and a Data Warehousing project, in an attempt to finally
achieve the benefits expected but never realised.
