The findings for small, medium and large companies in Australia are reported and discussed. It is apparent that strategic planning for information systems in many organisations is not extensive and in some cases is not fulfilling their own organisational planning objectives. The quality of strategic planning for information systems is evaluated. Some organisations successfully adopt a strategic view of their information systems while others do not capitalize on their recognition of information as a strategic resource. Most companies do not appear to view information systems planning as a strategic issue and some do not formally plan for information needs.","PeriodicalId":352879,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1996 Information Systems Conference of New Zealand","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126813591","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The approach integrates decisions on organisational design with information systems development. Based on the understanding of business processes as a customer-supplier relationship a general process model is introduced which summarizes fundamental characteristics of business processes. These characteristics are the ground for an object oriented approach which extends the OO modeling-technique OMT with features for business process modeling. An example illustrates the principal approach, the main modeling steps and the methodical support. It is based on an outside (macro) and an inside (micro) view on business processes.","PeriodicalId":352879,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1996 Information Systems Conference of New Zealand","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116926144","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A common set of critical success factors, missions, and core business activities was identified by executive managers and owners of 10% of the top Australian IT firms. Management described other organisational characteristics including size, revenue, growth projections, the role of software, information systems functions, project teams, customer relations, organisational resources and technology uptake. Staff were asked to identify and describe cultural aspects of the organisations such as the importance of key individuals, orthodoxy, watershed events, key functional values and beliefs, folklore, rites and rituals. They provided metaphors for the organisation culture, the organization itself, their manager an employee, the ideal work environment, and the ideal manager.","PeriodicalId":352879,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1996 Information Systems Conference of New Zealand","volume":"90 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122433217","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of the most important challenges faced by systems developers is the selection of the systems development methodology. The methodology chosen will have a large impact on different aspects of development (i.e, cost, time, resources needed, etc.). There is limited research aimed to assist systems developers in the selection of the most appropriate methodology for their particular cases. Previous research have mainly focused on the type of system and personal preferences, but very little has been said about the influence of organisational variables. The paper reports the results of a survey which studied the systems development methodologies used in different sectors of the New Zealand economy. The relationships between system development methodologies and organisational demographic variables are identified. Responses from 353 organisations show that there is a clear relationship between the two sets of variables.","PeriodicalId":352879,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1996 Information Systems Conference of New Zealand","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131897145","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Within the KADS framework, a model of domain expertise is built prior to system implementation. Before making important design decisions, it is necessary to check that this model correctly represents the domain and its problem solving aspects. In this paper, a framework which employs functional prototyping for validating a model of expertise is described. Before building the prototype, an object-oriented knowledge representation model is developed based on the model of expertise. This knowledge representation model provides the structure of the prototype. Since mistakes may be made in the translation from one model to another, the knowledge representation model has to be verified to ensure that it accurately depicts the information in the model of expertise. The functional prototype can then be constructed and verified. Finally, the domain experts can test out the functional prototype to see whether it accurately models the domain. This framework was applied to the summer-autumn management domain. Two important areas were prototyped: feed budgeting and production level analysis.","PeriodicalId":352879,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1996 Information Systems Conference of New Zealand","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132199465","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With competition increasing worldwide, more and more organisations realise that they need to reshape their business in order to survive and prosper into the next century. In other words they need to completely reshape their organisations. Systems integration (SI) is a stepping stone for organisations to reengineer themselves. Through SI implementation, they can take advantage of technological advances, improve speed, service and quality. Despite the worthwhile goal, organisations are still hesitant on this venture. Based on a case study carried out in the University of Malaya, the paper discusses the factors that push an organisation to seriously consider SI as an enabling tool for continued success in the future. We then highlight some direct advantages that can be derived from SI and how they can overcome some of the IT concerns of an organisation. Next we discuss briefly the drawbacks of SI and how they can be overcome or minimised. Finally, we mention some supportive points that further encourage the implementation of SI.","PeriodicalId":352879,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1996 Information Systems Conference of New Zealand","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132013929","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
