Abstract

Government departments are under increasing pressure to demonstrate technology effectiveness. One approach that government departments can use to be perceived as more technology effective is to understand the Management Information Systems (MIS) maturity issues that affect their departments. There are gaps in the academic literature about how African governments are dealing with the issues of MIS maturity; and this is also applicable to Nigeria. The purpose of this research is to gain a better understanding of some of the MIS maturity concerns of Nigerian Ministries, Department, and Agencies (MDAs). This is important because senior managers and policymakers can more effectively understand the challenges that affect their respective departments and develop context-appropriate policies. This study is quantitative in nature and primary data in the form of questionnaires were collected from 109 key stakeholders from selected Nigerian government departments. The data were analyzed using Factor analysis as a primary tool. The analysis provided a deeper understanding of some of the issues affecting the maturity within the selected Nigerian MDAs. The results of the analysis were used to develop a model that outlines some of the maturity concerns for the selected Nigerian MDAs. The issues that affect MIS maturity in Nigerian MDAs are related to: (1) integration of MIS initiatives, creating MIS vision, implementation of MIS management policies and the development of supportive MIS objectives which influence MIS maturity, (2) robust MIS objectives and robust MIS management that influences service delivery.

尼日利亚公共组织管理信息系统成熟度问题
政府部门面临着越来越大的压力,需要证明技术的有效性。政府部门可以用来被认为技术更有效的一种方法是了解影响其部门的管理信息系统(MIS)成熟度问题。关于非洲政府如何处理MIS成熟度问题,学术文献中存在空白;这也适用于尼日利亚。本研究的目的是更好地了解尼日利亚各部委、部门和机构(MDA)的一些MIS成熟度问题。这一点很重要,因为高级管理人员和决策者可以更有效地了解影响其各自部门的挑战,并制定适合具体情况的政策。这项研究是定量的,以问卷的形式从尼日利亚政府部门的109个关键利益相关者那里收集了初步数据。使用因子分析作为主要工具对数据进行分析。该分析使我们对影响选定尼日利亚多边发展援助成熟度的一些问题有了更深入的了解。分析结果用于开发一个模型,该模型概述了选定尼日利亚MDA的一些成熟度问题。影响尼日利亚MDA中MIS成熟度的问题涉及:(1)MIS计划的整合、创建MIS愿景、MIS管理政策的实施和影响MIS成熟度支持性MIS目标的制定;(2)稳健的MIS目标和影响服务交付的稳健的MIS管理。
