The rapid change of managerial environmental with a paradigm shift and the development of information technology made the rivalry between companies more intensive. Business reengineering methodology emerged under this severe competition have provided some companies remarkable competitive advantages. Meanwhile, the statistic result that 70% or more of the reengineering effort in the real world has turned out to be unsuccessful raises a necessity to modify existing methodologies.
This paper suggest a revised methodology for successful reengineering efforts complementing positive premises and avoiding negative premises. I add the concept of a pilot process to the research result on existing strategic business reengineering, which applied business reengineering for more systematic implementation of the strategic information system. The addition of a pilot process aims at the inducement of top management's supports, spreading reengineering concept to internal members of the company, and experience accumulation for next important implementation being conduced prior to a full-scale reengineering. This pilot process reengineering is considered to be a effective way to reengineer strategic business process.
This paper also suggest a way and criteria to select such a pilot process and a real would case study of the revised methodology.
