TÜRK İNŞAAT SEKTÖRÜNDE KURUMSAL KAYNAK PLANLAMA (ERP) SİSTEMLERİNİN KULLANIMI ÜZERİNE BİR ARAŞTIRMA

Abstract

Türk inşaat sektörünün, sürdürülebilir performansını devam ettirebilmesi için sektörün önde gelen firmalarının üstlendikleri projeleri daha etkin sistemlerle yönetmesi gerekmektedir. Bu gerekliliği karşılayabilmek amacıyla ise Kurumsal Kaynak Planlama (ERP) sistemlerine olan ilgileri ve ihtiyaçları her geçen gün artmaktadır. Özellikle son birkaç sene içerisinde çok sayıda inşaat firması ERP sistemlerine yatırım yapmış olsa da yapılan bu yatırımların azımsanmayacak bölümü başarısızlıkla sonuçlanmaktadır. Bu bağlamda çalışmanın temel amacı, Türk inşaat firmalarının ERP sistemlerini kullanırken yaşadıkları zorlukları araştırmak ve daha başarılı uygulamalar elde edilmesi için çözüm önerileri sunmaktadır. Çalışmanın amacı doğrultusunda ERP sistemlerini bünyesine uyarlamış 62 adet Türk inşaat firması ile bir anket çalışması gerçekleştirilmiştir. Sonrasında ise, firmaların ERP adaptasyonunda başarı sağlamaları için çözüm önerileri paylaşılmıştır. Ortaya koyulan çözüm önerileri, ERP sistemlerini uygulamak isteyen inşaat firmalarının kendilerine uygun bir yol haritası hazırlaması için gerekli altyapıyı sağlaması aşamasında faydalı olacağı gibi, Türk inşaat şirketlerinin küresel rekabet edebilirliklerini arttırarak Türk inşaat sektörünün sürdürülebilir performansının sağlamasına katkıda bulunacaktır.

A RESEARCH ON THE USE OF ENTERPRISE RESOURCE PLANNING (ERP) SYSTEMS IN THE TURKISH CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY

Abstract

Turkish construction companies should manage their projects with more effective systems to maintain the sustainable performance of construction industry. Therefore, construction companies’ interest and needs in Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems are increasing to meet this requirement. Especially in the last few years, many construction companies have invested in ERP systems however a considerable part of these investments result in failure. In this context, the main purpose of this study is to investigate the difficulties that Turkish construction companies are facing while using ERP systems and to offer solutions for more successful implementations. In line with this purpose, a survey was conducted with 62 Turkish construction companies that have adapted ERP systems. Then, suggestions were made for construction companies to achieve success in ERP adaptation. The proposed solutions will not only be useful in providing the necessary infrastructure for construction companies that want to implement ERP systems and to prepare a suitable roadmap, but also will contribute to the sustainable performance of the Turkish construction industry by increasing the global competitiveness of Turkish construction companies.
