Book excerpt: Excerpt from Identifying the Attributes of Successful Executive Support System Implementation The use of computers by top management, known as executive support systems (Ess), is a steadily growing phenomenon, one that can have major impacts on the nature of executive work and the way organizations function. Like any new application of information technology, however, Ess is fraught with pitfalls. Technological, organizational, psychological and educational issues all contribute variables that make the implementation of executive support systems difficult. Much has changed in the four years since Rockart and Treacy first identified the executive computing phenomenon (Rockart/Treacy, 1982). At the time they found only a handful of top managers making use of the technology. But, in late 1984, a survey of 45 randomly-selected Fortune 500 companies revealed that two-thirds of them had at least one executive, and usually several, with a computer terminal on his or her desk (De Long/Rockart, 1984). Slowly but steadily the concept of top management computer use is gaining credibility. One of the major barriers to the spread of Ess has been our lack of understanding of how to implement these systems. Unlike more mature I/s applications, such as transaction processing and decision support systems, we have lacked sufficient experience to develop an appropriate methodology for implementing Ess.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Design and Implementation of Decision Support Systems in the Public Sector Experience in dss design has also indicated the importance of flexibility, ease of use (at least by an intermediary), and adaptability. Design methodologies such as middle - out (ness, 1975) or prototyping (keen and Gambino, 1981) are explicitly directed towards achieving these characteristics. These design approaches assume there will be significant user and analyst learning both in terms of the technology as well as with regard to the decision process. This learning is enhanced (perhaps even made possible) by developing an initial system with the characteristics described above. As both the user and analyst move along a learning curve, the system is adapted to support their evolving information and learning needs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Implementation Politics: Top Management Support and User Involvement An alternative explanation, which addresses all of these objections, explains resistance to information systems as a lack of consonance between the distribution of power implied by an information system and the distribution of power existing in the organization. Thus, the origins of resistance. Here, power is defined as the ability to get one's way over objections. Thus, the origins of resistance are found, not in the presence or absense of any particular tactic for introducing change, but in the interaction of the substance of the change with its organizational context. Clearly, the power distribution of an organization is not the only substantive dimension which could be changed by the introduction of a system with certain design features. Other dimensions include the task variety, importance and autonomy of middle managers' jobs and social interaction patterns or job-related communication channels. But organizational power structures influence a great deal of the behavior of individuals, groups, and subunits contained in them. Therefore, power structure changes introduced by computer-based systems comprise an efficient and fruitful starting point for identifying the organizational impacts of systems and, hence, the causes of resistance to them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Decision Support Systems: A Research Perspective None of these conceptions necessarily implies interactive computer systems; a D88 is defined in terms of context and use. There is no technical conception for which one cannot readily generate coun terexamples. For instance, the design architecture, mode of use and available functions of an airline reservation system are virtually the same as those in many data-based dss. If a given dss is identical to, say, a standard interactive model, there seems no value whatsoever in using a new label. Dss become a meaningful research topic only if the term can be shown to be a necessary concept. In the pragmatic con text of information systems development and analytic techniques, call ing a system a dss must lead to some actions, by the designers or users, that would not have occurred otherwise; the actions should contribute to the effective development of the system or its effective use. A potential strength of the dss movement has been that it has at least tried to link theory and practice. It describes real systems used in real organizations by real problem-solvers, not experi ments involving captive students. At the same time, since it explicitly argues that dss are different from traditional systems, the better empirical work addresses conceptual issues, if only assertively. The available studies of dss thus often provide illustrations, extensions or counterexamples that can be used to test and extend their authors' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
