New Journal in 2017 ! Organizational Design and Enterprise Engineering Editors-in-Chief: H.A. Proper; R. Magalhães ISSN: 2367-3567 (print version) ISSN: 2367-3575 (electronic version) The relationship between organizational sciences, business informatics, and computer science has always been distant, leading to the waste of a lot of money on IT applications that never fit the needs of organizations. In spite of this, organizational reality and the world of information technology continue to move closer together, pushed by unrelenting social, economic and political forces. This entails a convergence of two key disciplines that respectively represent the organizational sciences and the engineering sciences (mixing business informatics and computer science). Such a convergence, however, has still not been properly acknowledged in academic publishing. One key aim of this journal is to actively contribute to breaking down the us-and-them mindset, a major obstacle to the development of strategic and operational thinking in organizations. Another is to present research papers based on a model-enabled, rather than model-centric or even model-oriented, approach, thus bridging the two communities. Thus the journal presents research that helps break down differences in mindset between organizational sciences, business informatics, and computer science. + Focuses on organizational design, business (process) engineering, business process optimization, information systems engineering, enterprise architecture, and enterprise engineering in general + Establishes a common ground between organizational sciences, business informatics, and computer science + Intertwines design, construction, and change of information technology supported organizations + Emphasizes practical issues of information technology implementation in real-life organizations This journal helps break down the us-and-them mindset that blocks strategic and operational thinking in organizations. It presents papers using a model-enabled, rather than model-centric or model-oriented approach, to reach both IT and organizational leaders. We are looking forward to submissions that are delaing with these issues.
