THE CRITICAL FACTORS FOR INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY INVESTMENT SUCCESS -
JAMES ROBERTSON

 

The Critical Factors for Information Technology Investment Success
recognizes the extremely high level of Information Technology Investment
failure, catalogues the causes of failure and presents a structured
approach to avoid failure.

 

Compelling messages the book contains include:

Only ten percent of Information Technology investments meet or exceed
the original business requirement and seventy percent of projects fail
totally.  Only ten percent of Strategic Plans succeed.  Seventy percent
of Business Process Re-engineering projects fail.

 

This book explains why.

Information Technology, Business Strategy and Business Process
Re-engineering are all facets of one composite field of business
improvement which require an integrated holistic approach to achieve
results.

 

Information Technology is not about technology, it is about people.

 

A clear understanding of the strategic driver of the business is one of
the most critical factors that determines Information Technology
Investment success.

 

Highly structured validation data and codes in a comprehensive data
model represents one of the biggest opportunities for businesses to
secure real benefit using Information Technology.

 

This book confronts probably the single most challenging topic
confronting business management today - how to apply Strategic Planning,
Business Optimization and Information Technology to support business
effectively, strategically and sustainably.

 

The "Critical Factors For Information Technology Investment Success" is
available for R500.00 vat inclusive, excluding postage. If you are
interested in purchasing the book, please find attached order Form.
