1. Discovering success factors in the pioneering stage of a digital startupKenedi Binowo, Achmad Nizar Hidayanto, 2023, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: Background and Purpose: Successful digital startups can generate income for the country and improve people’s lives. However, for prospective founders who will launch their startups, the success factor in pioneering digital startups remains unknown. The purpose of this study is to identify key success factors for digital startups in pioneering stages. Methodology: Thematic analysis is a method for identifying success factors in pioneering stage digital startups. The data will be collected from the interviews of ten startup founders. Results: The findings show that fifteen critical factors are success factors in the digital startup pioneering stage, namely; problems, business ideas, teams, business models, capital or funding, products, incubators, validation, competitors, marketing, mastery of technology, market analysis, founders and co-founders, partners, and passion. These findings are expected to be ground-breaking for anyone interested in launching a digital startup. Conclusion: The first conclusion that we can draw is that there are fifteen important factors that can be claimed and used as success factors in the classification of the digital startup pioneering stage. The second conclusion, based on the findings of the ten founders’ analyses, is that problem factors and team factors are two of the fifteen most dominant and influential digital startup success factors. Problem factor is critical for detecting problems encountered by many people and can motivate digital startup founders to develop solutions to these problems. While team factor is important because with a team, all problems raised are quickly and easily resolved, and all work is handled productively and collaboratively.

2. Perception of document management systems in digital transformation : VIII.Sandra Jordan, Samo Bobek, Simona Sternad Zabukovšek, 2025, samostojni znanstveni sestavek ali poglavje v monografski publikaciji Opis: Document Management Systems (DMS) are essential tools for managing organisational information throughout its lifecycle. Despite increasing adoption, many DMS implementations fail to deliver the expected value due to inadequate attention to Critical Success Factors (CSFs). This monograph investigates the impact of selected CSFs—such as top management support, process orientation, and organisational culture—on different phases of the DMS lifecycle: selection, implementation, and usage. Drawing on the ITIL framework and lifecycle-based thinking, the study employs a quantitative methodology using PLS-SEM on data collected from Slovenian organisations. The results show that CSFs vary in importance across lifecycle stages, highlighting the need for dynamic, phase-specific implementation strategies. The findings contribute to theory by integrating CSFs with DMS lifecycle management and provide actionable insights for practitioners seeking to optimise DMS adoption and performance.

3. Key success factors in digital transformation : fundamentals developed from a bibliometric analysisTilen Medved, Tomaž Kern, Eva Krhač Andrašec, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: The article analyses a multidimensional digital transformation process. Digital transformation is a change or shift in operational and strategic frameworks necessitated by the rapid advancement of digital technology. Digital transformation is more than the implementation of advanced technology, it requires a cultural shift towards constant experimentation and openness to failure. Such changes make the organization agile, efficient, and customer-orientated, with the ability to quickly integrate new, comprehensive data into the entire decision-making and innovation process. The purpose of the research was therefore to analyse the key success factors in digital transformation. The analysis serves as a basis for further theoretical research in this field and for practical implementation in organisational systems. As part of this research, a bibliometric analysis was carried out using the open-source tool VOSviewer. The analysis shows that digital transformation is particularly relevant in the fields of Computer Science; Business, Management and Accounting; and Engineering, namely in Germany, China and the Russian Federation. We have come to the conclusion that the key success factors in digital transformation are as follows: corporate organization and technology, collaboration and cultural change, holistic strategy, leadership and organizational structure, continuous learning and conformity to best practises.

4. Identifying the critical success factors for the introduction of an asset management system : a Delphi study in the healthcare sectorDamjan Maletič, Justyna Trojanowska, Matjaž Maletič, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: Purpose: For decades, attention has been paid to standardized management
systems, both in academia and in practice. This study focuses on an asset
management system (AMS), specifically the key critical success factors (CSFs)
for implementing an AMS in healthcare organizations.
Methodology/Approach: The study is based on a Delphi method with 15
participants from various Slovenian healthcare organisations who validated and
defined the most important CSFs.
Findings: The study shows a strong consensus among the experts with regard to
specific CSFs in the areas of management and leadership, employee competencies
and methods and tools for process improvement.
Research Limitation/Implication: The Delphi study method is based on a
selected sample of experts, which could have an impact on the generalizability and
replicability of the research.
Originality/Value of paper: This study provides a better understanding of CSFs
for the implementation of AMS based on the opinion and consensus of experts
holding different positions and professions in healthcare. As this topic has received
little attention in healthcare research and practice, this study serves as a preliminary
study to stimulate future work in this under-researched area.

5. A taxonomy of critical success factors for implementing corporate sustainability strategies: a systematic reviewUrška Butolen, Igor Vrečko, Iztok Palčič, 2025, pregledni znanstveni članek Opis: Businesses are facing increasing pressure to transition to a sustainable economy, requiring the integration of environmental, social, and economic aspects into their corporate strategies. Despite the proliferation of sustainability frameworks, many companies struggle to implement them effectively due to a lack of strategic focus. This study develops a taxonomy of critical success factors (CSFs) for implementing corporate sustainability strategies in production companies, addressing a gap in current research that often focuses on strategy design rather than practical execution. A systematic literature review was conducted to identify critical success factors influencing successful implementation and categorise them, providing a comprehensive understanding of their roles. The proposed taxonomy includes five dimensions: organisational culture, organisational structure, performance management, resources (including digitalisation and technology), and stakeholder integration (including sustainable supply chain management). An explanation is provided of the role of identified CSFs in the successful implementation of corporate sustainability strategies and their interrelationships. The taxonomy serves as a tool for production companies to manage critical success factors influencing the successful implementation of sustainability. This research contributes to the growing body of knowledge on sustainability by providing practical insights for effective strategy implementation and calls for more empirical studies to explore this area further.

6. Psychological factors impacting academic performance among business studies’ studentsMaja Rožman, Igor Vrečko, Polona Tominc, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: This study explores the significant psychological factors that impact academic success among students. The sample included 287 undergraduate and postgraduate students of business studies. Structural Equation Modeling was used to analyze the data, investigating the impact of students’ motivation, mental and physical health, work-life balance, and anxiety on both perceived academic success as well as quantitative indicators of academic success. The findings reveal that students’ motivation is significant for enhancing academic success. Additionally, while mental and physical health are significant contributors to academic success, balancing academic work with personal life is essential for fostering a positive perception of academic success. Conversely, anxiety, particularly exam-related, negatively affects students’ perceived academic success, highlighting the need for comprehensive support systems. These findings offer crucial insights for educators and policymakers, paving the way for innovative strategies that enhance academic success and empower students to thrive holistically, both academically and personally. By addressing the full spectrum of challenges students face, we can foster a more resilient, motivated, and successful generation of students.

7. Analiza pričakovanih učinkov uvedbe oblačne rešitve »SAP Success Factors«Špela Mahorič, 2019, magistrsko delo Opis: Eden izmed najpomembnejših dejavnikov pri doseganju poslovnih ciljev podjetja so usposobljeni zaposleni, ki se uspešno spopadajo z novimi razmerami na trgu. Zato je kadrovska funkcija v podjetjih izjemnega pomena, saj izbira kandidate, ki so za dosego poslovnih ciljev najbolj primerni. Na eni strani imamo tradicionalno plat kadrovske funkcije, pri kateri podjetje zagotovi zaposlene in poskrbi, da ti zaposleni dobijo za svoje delo primerno plačilo. Na drugi strani pa imamo strateško plat kadrovske funkcije. Pri tej gre za to, da podjetje pridobi prave zaposlene na pravih delovnih mestih, ki delajo prave stvari na pravi način, hkrati pa jim omogoča pravi razvoj za prihodnost. Obe strani kadrovske funkcije lahko poenostavimo s pomočjo kadrovskih informacijskih sistemov. Ti omogočajo, da podjetje zmanjša kadrovsko papirno dokumentacijo in upravlja z zaposlenimi s pomočjo informacijskega sistema. Začetki kadrovskih informacijskih sistemov so bili v opravljanju nalog tradicionalne plati. Ob razvoju informacijske tehnologije pa so ponudniki kadrovskih informacijskih sistemov razvili tudi strateško plat kadrovske funkcije. Kadrovski informacijski sistemi so sredstvo za pridobivanje, shranjevanje, analiziranje in posredovanje informacij različnim uporabnikom. Običajno obsegajo ohranjanje zaposlenih, zaposlovanje, upravljanje z zaposlenimi, upravljanje plačilnega prometa, načrtovanje kadrovskih virov, upravljanje z izobraževanji, spremljanje uspešnosti, samoupravljanje zaposlenih, načrtovanje, upravljanje odsotnosti, analitiko, prerazporeditve zaposlenih in drugo. Na trgu obstaja veliko ponudnikov kadrovskih informacijskih sistemov. Noviteta predvsem na slovenskem trgu pa je SAP Success Factors. Rešitev še vedno omogoča opravljanje enakih kadrovskih funkcij, le da je s SAP Success Factors to poenostavljeno in dostopnejše.
V magistrski nalogi je mogoče spoznati in lažje razumeti kadrovsko funkcijo v podjetju in področja upravljanja s kadri. Podrobneje so opredeljeni kadrovski informacijski sistemi, njihov razvoj in funkcije ter ponudniki kadrovskih informacijskih sistemov. Izmed vseh ponudnikov smo izbrali rešitev SAP Success Factors, ki je nastala leta 2011 ob združitvi podjetij SAP d. o. o. in Success Factors. V drugem delu je na podlagi podjetja X predstavljen obstoječi kadrovski informacijski sistem in nekatere funkcije, kot sta spremljanje uspešnosti zaposlenih in upravljanje nasledstev. Obstoječi kadrovski informacijski sistem v tem podjetju namreč ne predstavlja takšne učinkovitosti, kot bi ga podjetje z uporabo sistema želelo. Nekaterih funkcij ni mogoče informacijsko podpreti ali pa so za to potrebni zunanji zaposleni, kar prinaša podjetju visoke stroške. V magistrski nalogi smo v demo verziji programa SAP Success Factors predstavili procese, ki bi izbranemu podjetju izboljšali upravljanje s kadri. Za konec smo naredili primerjalno analizo med obstoječim kadrovskim informacijskim sistemom in programom SAP Success Factors. Ugotovili smo, da bi podjetje z vpeljavo sistema SAP Success Factors izboljšalo nekatere procese, zmanjšalo papirno dokumentacijo, izboljšalo kadrovsko poročanje, informacijsko podprlo letne pogovore, izboljšalo motivacijo zaposlenih in drugo.

8. The impact of managers on successful ERP implementationFranc Ravnikar, 2010, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: Lately, Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) has been implemented in public organizations and organizations without competition in the marketplace. It is the ERP system that is almost as badly needed for the competitiveness and success of those organizations in the marketplace. The main reason lies in the fact that operating costs have to be reduced and the optimization of business processes is an option which nowadays is normally implemented together with new ERP. The success rate of ERP implementation remains very low with up to a 90% failure rate, as it is quoted in a lot of researches. Critical success factors (CSF) which influence successful ERP implementation are identical in all organizations. The main goal of this research is to find out the managers' impact on the critical success factors and thus their impact on the successful ERP implementation. Top management support is the most important critical success factor for successful ERP implementation, regardless of the fact whether the organization is on the market or not.

9. A review of critical success factors for offshore software development projectsGoparaju Purna Sudhakar, 2013, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: Offshore project success is very much important to both customer and the vendor. Based on very less success rate of overall software projects globally, critical success factors (CSFs) for offshore software projects is gaining much importance. In the current study based on literature review, a total of 75 success factors for offshore software projects are identified. Further based on their appearance in literature 20 critical success factors from 10 CSF categories are identified. Finally top six most critical success factors for offshore software projects such as trust, efficient communication, cultural understanding, relationship between client and vendor, contract type and efficient knowledge transfer are identified. The CSFs categories are prioritized in the order of importance. The important CSF categories for offshore projects found are organizational factors (both client and vendor), project factors, cultural factors and environmental factors.

10. Key factors for the successful operation of clusters : the case for SloveniaBrigita Gajšek, Jure Kovač, 2016, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: Background and Purpose: Companies are increasingly specializing and developing those key areas with which they can compete on the global market and are linking in clusters that are ingredient of territorial competitiveness. Clusters can play a competitive role in global value chains but once being successful, they may decline. For this reason, researching key factors for the successful operation of clusters in Slovenia is beneficial.
Methodology: This study is based on an extensive review of scientific literature. Theoretical findings are tested by a study of clustering in Slovenia. In practice, we determine the number of operating clusters fifteen years after they were initiated by the institutional environment with help of web pages, e-mails and telephone calls. Using interviews, we determine reasons for the cessation of operations on the part of former directors and factors of successful operations with directors of successful clusters.
Results: The institutional environment initiated start-up processes of creating clusters in Slovenia. After the termination of institutional financial support, Slovenian clusters, which have failed to develop their own financing system, ceased operation. Directors of still operating clusters confirmed that trust between cluster members is the most important success factor in the operation of clusters.
Conclusion: The institutional environment in Slovenia adopted cluster policy and successfully leveraged the establishment of clusters using start-up financing. Less than half of these clusters continue to prosper under their own stream after policy retreatment. Clusters were not prepared for a dramatically different way of working. Trust has become a major driving force of adjusting to new conditions.
