Product Description
Product Description
"Accessibility and clarity of purpose maintained throughout."
Journal of Information Technology
"Clear, practical, comprehensive."
Output
"A clear exposition of the impact that IS has had on business performance."
Long Range Planning
"Lucid analysis."
Computer Weekly
Strategic Planning for Information Systems (3rd Edition) explores the impact that Information Systems (IS) have on business performance and the contribution IS makes to the strategic development of organizations. It describes IS tools, techniques and management frameworks – all of which identify opportunities for strategic thinking, and shows how IS is an indispensable component in the implementation of a strategic plan.
Since the earlier edition of Strategic Planning for Information Systems, much has changed in the way business is organized. However, the essence of the book remains the same – it is a practical and comprehensive book written in a clear and straightforward way. This new edition focuses more on strategic management of IS than on the progress made in recent years in either technology or business processes. This 3rd edition is substantially updated and illustrated with new cases material and examples. Additional material will cover the role of ecommerce, knowledge management and benefits management systems. This book will also show why Information Systems and Information Technology investment works for some organizations and not for others.

This really is a shockingly poorly written book. It may well have some useful information within it (although mostly its standard strategy models and frameworks that are described more effectively in strategy books). However, I can't help feeling like the authors tried their hardest to stretch the book out to 12 long chapters in order to justify charging more for the book. I know this accusation can be thrown at lots of authors, but it frustrates me that this book could have been so much simpler to read - and consequently so much more helpful to me with my MBA assignment! I feel robbed!

Brilliant product, product as it was describe and very fast delivery as well over all very good experience to business with you hope to shop again....5star for you :)
Format:Hardcover
While there are some useful tenets of information inside the covers of this book, the choice material tends to get lost in unnecessary academic detail. In my view, this one is for the academics purposes only, IT managers will struggle to derive value from what is a very wordy read.
