Answer: A
A BPR project more often leads to an increased number of
people using technology, and this would be a cause for
concern. As BPR is often technology oriented, and this
technology is usually more complex and volatile than in the
past, cost savings do not often materialize in this area.
There is no reason for IP to conflict with a BPR project,
unless the project is not run properly.
