CEPRIN Overview
The Center for Process Innovation (CEPRIN) is a college-level research unit within J. Mack Robinson College of Business . The Center was founded in January 2004 in collaboration between the College and the Georgia Research Alliance.
CEPRIN focuses on "end-to-end business process innovation." our preferred modus operandi for research is to collaborate closely with industry partners on research projects of mutual interest, engaging a multi-disciplinary group of researchers (faculty and Ph.D. students) in these projects.
CEPRIN's research embraces the following areas:
- The efficient and responsive satisfaction of an end-consumers’ need for a good or service through the study and improvement of the physical and informational flows and the processes they connect with.
- The transitions across organizational boundaries of such flows and the multiplicity of issues this creates in terms of information sharing, benefit distribution, legal impediments, trust, risk management, and mutual cooperation.
- The need for visibility over the entire process and for effective means to measure and improve its flows.
- The ability to rapidly reconfigure and amend networks to more quickly respond to changes in market needs and economic opportunities.
- The development and implementation of information services and infrastructures that support transactions and networking across organizational boundaries.
