Systems delivery: evolving new strategies.
Leading-edge organizations are considering major investments in new systems development tools, methods, and techniques in order to improve their capability to deliver information systems more quickly, inexpensively, and effectively. From discussions with senior managers in twelve such companies, the authors have developed a framework for addressing many of the issues involved in these decisions. They argue that redesigning systems development is a major process change that is strategic in nature and that requires significant senior management involvement. Companies must understand their current capabilities and envision their needs in the future.
