Abstract

The aim of this study is to propose a shared information technology infrastructure model for cooperatives. The methodology followed a qualitative approach and was descriptive and exploratory. The technical feasibility was analyzed using benchmarking, technical documents, 95th percentile method and calculations of the sizing of resources. The analysis of the economic feasibility was based on price quotes for all the individual IT infrastructure components, as well as the development of cash flow, income statements and indicators of return and risk. The study demonstrated that a shared IT model is feasible from a technical, economic and financial standpoint, considering a strategic intercooperation alliance in the form of a central cooperative.
