【Abstract】 Based on a case study of ERP implementation and the transformation of organizational culture in company C,a large state-owned enterprise,this paper explores the mechanisms as well as the essential conditions of organizational culture transformation due to the application of ERP.By comparing the employees’ interpretations of daily practices in the organization before and after the implementation of ERP,the paper finds that the informatization in company C has transformed its organizational culture from relation-based culture to rule-based professional culture.The mechanisms of this transformation include technology imperative,the management discipline and the employees’ self-adaptation.The author argues that whether technology could change organizational culture depends on the extent of legitimacy the technology has acquired in the organization.The paper also discusses the implication of this study for the second-stage reform of state-owned enterprises.更多还原
