AbstractIn this paper, the authors propose a new methodology relative to earlier work on the Viable System Ontology Theory. This theory links Beer's Viability theory and Dietz's Performance in Social Interaction (PSI) theory and aims at supporting the business process design of a viable system. This work extends the Viable System Ontology Theory by a detailed methodology that alternates the VSM functional diagnosis and design with the construction design as recommended by the Generic System Development Process (GSDP). The proposed methodology consists of three iterative phases: the environment construction, the function design, and the construction design of a viable system. Those steps are discussed in the light of the Viable System Ontology Theory propositions. In addition, they are illustrated by the case study of the Moroccan public medicine procurement system.

Nowadays, the adoption of a new enterprise resource planning system is a highly complex process, and it is not as easy as people imagine. It is a challenging task that requires rigorous efforts, careful thinking, and proper planning. Likewise, it demands a detailed analysis of such factors that are critical to the implementation. The field has sparked an immense interest in the research community, and hence several previous studies have tried to assess the current status of these systems and address some issues in the literature reviews. First, the research aims to conduct a comprehensive literature survey, in order to address some issues related to the implementation and management of ERP, and point out overall trends. Afterwards, we tried to provide a contribution to the research field of the critical success factors (CSFs) of ERP projects based on a systematic approach to review a large number of refereed papers published between 2006 and 2018 on ERP from which a large number of documents relating to CSFs on ERP were extracted, and selected for analysis. From that review, we led a survey through which we tried to investigate and examine the different critical success factors that need to be considered to ensure the success of ERP systems.
