Information systems cost estimators and non-estimators those IS professionals not responsible for cost estimating have different roles, responsibilities, and objectives. They might consequently be expected to have different perceptions of the estimating process. Previous research has shown that perceptual congruence-the degree to which individuals view matters similarly-is associated with favorable organizational consequences. A study of information systems cost estimators and non-estimators at 112 organizations compared and contrasted their perceptions of the cost estimating process and its success. Estimators and non-estimators did not differ substantially in their views of the uses of the estimate, the basis for estimating, the influences on the estimate, and management practices for estimating. They did differ in their perceptions of the importance of the estimate, their satisfaction with the estimating process, their estimating accuracy, and the causes of inaccurate estimates. The similarities and differences provide implications for researchers and information resource managers.","PeriodicalId":44735,"journal":{"name":"Information Resources Management Journal","volume":"8 1","pages":"17-28"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"1995-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70476507","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}

Managing the risks associated with investments in IT represents an important, but understudied, aspect of the IT planning process. Recognizing that individual projects carry different levels of risk, it has been suggested that managers adopt a portfolio approach toward investments in IT. Under such an approach, individual projects would be evaluated not just on their own merits but on the basis of their contribution to the overall risk of an organization's IT project portfolio. While the portfolio approach has intuitive appeal, it has been criticized for failing to provide a more direct linkage between the concepts of risk and return. In this paper, we draw upon financial portfolio theory to extend and explore the concept of a portfolio approach to managing IT project risk. In particular, we present a model that assesses an individual project in terms of its contribution to the overall risk of the IT project portfolio. The properties of the model are then examined using a simple two-project portfolio. A simulation using the model illustrates how an IT manager can take maximal advantage of the effect of diversification by selecting projects that are negatively correlated. In short, the paper demonstrates how to manage the risk/return tradeoff through careful selection of IT projects and appropriate allocation of resources among these projects.","PeriodicalId":44735,"journal":{"name":"Information Resources Management Journal","volume":"8 1","pages":"5-16"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"1995-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70476505","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}

To continue to effectively deliver systems and services that IS customers perceive valuable, IS management must become expert in determining and assessing IS customers' expectations and perceptions. One important source of guidance in such a market-driven environment is to look to the service marketing and operations literature for frameworks that may permit IS to more effectively determine and convey customer value of IS services and IT. This paper outlines IS service quality improvement as a means to cope with this customer-driven IS environment. Specifically, it adapts a widely accepted conceptual \"gap\" model from the marketing field as a framework for IS service quality management. This model has as its premise that service quality improvement is a continual process of determining and comparing customer expectations and perceptions and, then, modifying products and services based on the results of this assessment. Applications of this model in both research and practice are discussed.","PeriodicalId":44735,"journal":{"name":"Information Resources Management Journal","volume":"8 1","pages":"5-17"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"1995-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70476322","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}

In the middle of this evolving complexity is the person who has the greatest responsibility for computer use in the firm-the chief information officer, or CIO. The 1980s saw an ascension in the CIO's status within the firm, reaching a position of parity with vice presidents of other functional areas. The 1990s, however, are seeing indications that the CIO's responsibility is eroding. Firms are beginning to pursue strategies that disburse more and more of their information resources throughout the organizational units, and give information processing responsibilities to outsourcers. If firms are to engage in strategic planning for their information resources and engage in information resources management, there must be a clear understanding of the forces that influence computer use and the role of the CIO in managing these forces. As a means of achieving such an understanding, the author explores the possible application of systems theory. The result is a normative structure that makes it possible to evaluate the extent to which a firm practices information resources management, and to project future trends in the role of such component elements as the CIO and the information systems unit","PeriodicalId":44735,"journal":{"name":"Information Resources Management Journal","volume":"8 1","pages":"5-15"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"1995-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70476533","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}
