Abstract
Increasingly, information systems (IS) development is done internationally. International IS development is very complex. Some of the factors that lead to this high complexity include geographically dispersed teams, time-zone differences, cultural differences, language problem, and communication challenges. All these affect coordination and collaboration significantly. Therefore, the project management activities have to be executed via different methods and information technology (IT) tools. There is a significant lack of studies dealing with the management of international IS development using methods and IT tools innovatively. Therefore, this study has been undertaken to fill in this research gap. It investigates the management of international IS development using methods and IT tools innovatively. It develops an all-encompassing conceptual model on the basis of an in-depth literature review and our long practical experience in managing of international IS development projects. The conceptual model covers various elements that should be taken into account for managing an international IS development project. It also exhibits how companies can manage international IS development using various methods and IT tools innovatively and efficiently. The conceptual model can be useful for both practice and further research in international IS development project management.
