Resumo: ERP systems have profound impacts on businesses processes and on the knowledge that employees need to carry out their activities. This essay discusses the ERP phenomenon using the metaphor of the cyborg and concepts about prosthetic memory based on the works of Haraway (2000) and Landsberg (1995). These works are used to explore aspects of ERP that seem to be otherwise obscure or camouflaged, so in need to be revealed. The cyborg can contribute to the understanding of different ways in which science and technology affect our lives, subjectivity and concepts. Issues such as complexity, changes in the workforce, changes in control strategies, identity and potential influences on knowledge and organizational actions related with ERP systems are interpreted in this essay. Finally, some questions and recommendations are presented on how to work with ERP systems.

Este ensaio discute o fenômeno dos sistemas ERP usando a metáfora dos ciborgues e conceitos sobre memória protética, com base em Haraway (2000) e Landsberg (1995). Estes trabalhos são utilizados para explorar aspectos dos ERP que parecem estar obscuros, camuflados e que necessitam ser revelados. O ciborgue pode contribuir para a compreensão dos diferentes modos como a ciência e a tecnologia afetam nossas vidas, a subjetividade e conceitos. Questões sobre complexidade, mudanças na força de trabalho, mudanças nas estratégias de controle, identidade e potenciais influências no conhecimento e ação organizacional relacionadas com sistemas ERP são interpretadas. Ao final, apresentam-se perguntas e recomendações sobre como lidar com ERP com base nas reflexões do presente ensaUniversidade Federal da Paraíba2011-12-26info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado por Paresapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufpb.br/index.php/tpa/article/view/1184810.21714/2238-104X2011v1i1-11848Theory and Practice in Administration - TPA; Vol. 1 No. 1 (2011): Jul/Dez; pp. 62-73Teoria e Prática em Administração; v. 1 n. 1 (2011): Jul/Dez; pp. 62-732238-104Xreponame:Teoria e Prática em Administraçãoinstname:Universidade Federal da Paraíba (UFPB)instacron:UFPBporhttps://periodicos.ufpb.br/index.php/tpa/article/view/11848/6962Ludmer, Gilsoninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2020-08-24T13:59:42Zoai:periodicos.ufpb.br:article/11848Revistahttps://periodicos.ufpb.br/index.php/tpaPUBhttps://periodicos.ufpb.br/index.php/tpa/oaipjacome@sti.ufpb.br || tpa@ccsa.ufpb.br || marcelodesouzabispo@gmail.com || periodicos.ufpb@gmail.com2238-104X2238-104Xopendoar:2020-08-24T13:59:42Teoria e Prática em Administração - Universidade Federal da Paraíba (UFPB)false
