Book Measures for Successful Strategic Information Systems Planning

Download or read book Measures for Successful Strategic Information Systems Planning written by Alexander Küpper and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2008-02-26 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2007 in the subject Computer Science - Commercial Information Technology, grade: 1,2, European Business School - International University Schloß Reichartshausen Oestrich-Winkel (Wirtschaftsinformatik), course: IT Management & Consulting, language: English, abstract: Given that SISP evaluation in practice is either not applied to a satisfying degree or SISP frameworks are not implemented in accordance with literature (Grover & Segars, 2005, pp. 761-763), it appears advisable to generate a better understanding of the connection between SISP and its evaluation through bringing the existing success measures down to a common theoretical basis. In this context, three universal SISP framework dimensions form such common basis and are connected with SISP evaluation measures (King, 1978). Through this approximation of SISP frameworks and SISP evaluation, this paper aims to investigate the validity of the dimensions for SISP measures. The transfer of SISP framework dimensions to SISP evaluation measures provides guidance to the implementation of SISP evaluation measures in existing frameworks in a company, as well as it encourages further research to generate a more sophisticated conceptualisation of SISP evaluation methods. Altogether, the objective of this paper is to identify the need for SISP evaluation measures, present different SISP evaluation methods and to investigate the applicability of universal SISP framework dimensions of King’s (1978) analysis.
