The Relationship Between Strategic Information Systems Planning (SISP) and Facilitators to Achieve Successful Business Outcomes in South Korean Organizations

Strategic Information Systems Planning (SISP) is an important process in the implementation and use of IT systems in today’s dynamic and increasingly digitalized organizations. However, SISP is not a straightforward task, it is a process that covers simultaneous multiple planning issues often in changing environmental and organizational climates. Although SISP has been widely studied, and evaluating the SISP process has matured, theory on SISP facilitators that enable successful outcomes remain sparse. The main objective of this paper is to explore such facilitators and to investigate their relationship and contribution in achieving SISP success. By postal surveying a random sample of managers with SISP experience in South Korean organizations, we modeled the relationship between facilitators of SISP and their outcomes. The study used Structural Equation Modelling to analyze and validate its findings. This study suggests that facilitators positively affect successful SISP through business and IT alignment. It also demonstrates that effective SISP has a positive effect on organizational outcomes by ensuring organizational capabilities and IT infrastructure flexibility. The findings of this study expounding the role of facilitators adds to the theory of SISP and provides a guide to planners and managers responsible for information systems.

Strategic Planning for IS/IT of XYZ Internet Service Provider Using Ward and Peppard Method

PT. XYZ is one of the leading Internet service providers in East Java, Bali and Lombok. As an IT company that has the motto Quality Internet Service Provider, of course the role of IT is a significant thing, because with the IT all processes that are initially manual can turn out to be well automated.

Application of Big Data in a Multicategory Product-Service System for Global Logistics Support

This article conducts a case study with a global logistics service value-added (GLSV) system using big data analytics (BDA), which is implemented in a machinery equipment manufacturing company to provide a multicategory product-service system (PSS) intended to enhance firm performance. Drawing on the product-service system (PSS) concept, application of big data analytics, and strategic information systems planning (SISP), the plan do check action (PDCA) concept is used to develop a research framework in order to achieve the target company's objectives through the use of a global logistics system. The current article considers a machinery and equipment company located in a developing country as the case study. Through the case study, it is ascertained how the case company develops a GLSV system with BDA applications that leads to achieving multicategory PSS applications. The results indicate that a successful multicategory PSS should consider customer demands in the system framework and construct innovative assisting functions to support customer requirements. The proposed model not only demonstrates that a firm's business models should apply big data to align product providers with multicategory product-and-service providers for the PSS in global supply chains but also proves that this approach will enhance competitive advantage.

Strategizing Information Systems: An Empirical Analysis of IT Alignment and Success in SMEs

IT investment is a crucial issue as it does not only influence the performance in Small-Medium Enterprises (SMEs) but it also helps executives to align business strategy with organizational performance. Admittedly, though, there is ineffective use of Information Systems (IS) due to a lack of strategic planning and of formal processes resulting in executives’ failure to develop IS plans and achieve long-term sustainability. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to examine the phases of Strategic Information Systems Planning (SISP) process that contribute to a greater extent of success so that guidelines regarding the implementation of the process in SMEs can be provided. Data was collected by 160 IS executives in Greek SMEs during February and May 2017. Multivariate Regression Analysis was applied on the detailed items of the SISP process and success constructs. The results of this survey present that managers should be aware of the strategic use of IS planning so as to increase competitive advantage. Senior executives should choose the appropriate IT infrastructure (related to their business strategy and organizational structure), so as to align business strategy with organizational structure. The findings of this paper could help IS executives concentrate their efforts on business objectives and recognize the great value of the planning process on their business.

Strategic decision support systems for short supply chain development in the agrifood sector

There has been an interest in short food supply chain recently which has stemmed from the need of improving the flow both of products and information from suppliers to customers. Although, many tools have been developed in order to increase the performance of supply chain, they haven't succeeded in helping managers make strategic decisions concerning the operations of the short food supply one. In the agrifood sector, practitioners face short food supply chains as integrated systems that incorporate all the processes of traditional supply chains. Thus, decision support systems (DSSs) are required to help managers handle these processes properly. Most of the existing studies focus on the improvement of individual firms or processes more than on the design of an entire food supply chain. So, the purpose of this paper is to propose such a strategic DSS model that based on the Strategic information systems planning (SISP) process, could provide a holistic approach to effective decision making in short supply chain in the agrifood industry. This model supports product managers to improve the effectiveness of food supply operations.

Practicing and Factors Infuencing the Effective Implementation of Strategic Information Systems Planning in Public Agency

Strategic Information Systems Planning (SISP) guided organization in achieving its target. The importance of SISP increases proportionately with the uncertainty of business requirements. Failures in implementing SISP may affect organizational service delivery and reputation. This paper discusses on the evaluation of the practice and influencing factors of SISP implementation in a public sector. The Human Organization Technology-fit framework was used to evaluate the effectiveness of SISP from human, organization and technology perspectives. A qualitative case study was conducted using interview and document analysis method. The study identified 25 influencing factors of SISP implementation including knowledge and expertise, stakeholder engagement; governance, top management support, financial allocation and infrastructure capabilities. These influencing factors can guide other agencies to identify the risks of SISP implementation at an early stage; subsequently, mitigation plan can be developed to minimize the risk.

Digital transformation strategy making in pre-digital organizations: The case of a financial services provider

The formulation and implementation of a digital transformation strategy (DTS) has become a key concern for many pre-digital organizations across traditional industries, but how such a strategy can be developed remains an open question. We used interpretive in-depth case study research to study how a European financial services provider has formulated and implemented a DTS. By focusing on the underlying processes and strategizing activities, we show that digital strategy making not only represents a break with the conventions of upfront strategic information systems (IS) planning, but reveals a new extreme of emergent strategy making. Specifically, we conclude that a DTS is continuously in the making, with no foreseeable end. By building on theory from IS strategizing and strategy-as-practice literature, we theorize an integrated process/activity model that characterizes DTS formulation and implementation in pre-digital organizations. Our model shows that the crafting of a DTS is a highly dynamic process involving iterating between learning and doing.
