Two strategies that come to mind: 1) Perhaps the batch files will return a return-code indicating whether they succeeded or failed (which you can check via $?), or 2) You can use Win32::Process::Create to start the batch files instead of system() (which would allow your program to continue running without waiting for the batch files to finish).
