Information Technology Evaluation Practices Among Malaysian Banks, Woon Hooi Shyen Jan 2002

Information Technology Evaluation Practices Among Malaysian Banks, Woon Hooi Shyen

Student Works (2000-2009)

Globalization and liberalization has necessitated the banking industry at large to use information technology (IT) to gain competitive advantage. This is evidence from the increasing expenditure over the last decade on IT. Accompanied by such high investment in IT, there is a demand for measures to evaluate IT in its proper perspective so that it delivers the value it promises. Traditional capital budgeting or accounting methods may not be sufficient to address the complexities of an IT evaluation process. IT evaluation therefore requires a socio-technical framework which sets linkages between the content, process and context within which it is performed. …

Technology And Business: The Missing Link, S Chandrasekar Jun 1996

Technology And Business: The Missing Link, S Chandrasekar

IIMB Management Review

Technology, despite its critical importance to business, has far too often played a secondary role compared to other major management functions like marketing, finance, human resources development, production or corporate planning. The success of many US based technology driven companies in electronics and biotechnology in the seventies and early eighties and the Japanese and German economic miracles, driven largely by technology upgradation in specific targeted industries, should serve to renew interest in the study of the role of technology in improving business performance.

Research Collection School Of Accountancy

The development and implementation of IT (Information Technology) projects are plagued with problems of cost and time overruns, technical inadequacy, inability to meet user requirements, lack of utilization and failure to achieve anticipated benefits. These problems occur to some projects and not to others because 1) IT projects have different profiles of risk, and 2) IT projects risks have been managed more or less effectively. This paper synthesizes the literature into four classes of risks and applies it to evaluate TradeNet, an EDI-based trading system implemented in Singapore in 1989.

The Knowledge Systems Transfer Project: A Multiple Perspective Investigation Into The Integration Of A New Technology Within A Business Unit, Steven Craig Tarr

Dissertations and Theses

Many organizations have been attempting to build a conceptual framework for managing technology, with varying degrees of success. Most begin by consulting leading technology authorities, borrowing elements of their thinking, and adapting these elements to their organizational and personal situations. This dissertation extends this process by using the formal research methodology of multiple perspectives (technical, organizational, personal, and cross-cuing) to build a case-based model of the technology integration process. The research and the model construction benefits from a solid foundation established through a review of technology management and knowledge systems literature. The significant aspects of the research are tied to …
