In today's business world, information systems (IS) are often acquired from an external vendor rather than being developed in-house. Although the number of studies related to the success of IS acquisitions has increased, there is limited understanding of the relationship between acquisition project success, the final IS success, and their role in defining whether the acquisition endeavor was ultimately successful. For instance, in public sector organizations, there is a tendency for the acquisition project to be conducted outside the acquiring unit. This means that success can be evaluated at multiple levels in the organization, and the different levels might not have identical aspirations related to the acquisition. This can cause organizational issues, especially when the evaluation of success is left in the hands of only one of these parties. In this paper, we study the facets of IS acquisition success by presenting differing aspects that are used in defining IS acquisition success, pointing out a contradiction between the formally measured success and the perceived success. As a result, we propose an IS acquisition success model. The study is conducted as a single case study of a public sector organization in Finland.

Growing presence of the technology cause of an essential need to explore performance in the context of IS [28]. Most of the studies on SNS for cancer patients are more descriptive rather than theory building.…”

The growing presence of the technology cause of an essential need to explore cancer patients' behavior in online communities. Social Network Sites (SNS) such as Facebook provide an interactive environment to deliver health information to cancer patients. Only a few studies have looked at the role of Facebook for cancer patients despite their potential deliver health messages to large audiences. Hence, there should be more rigorous research to explain the cancer patients' behavior in SNS. This study propose a theoretical framework to explore the cognitive, social and technological constructs that affect the performance of cancer patients in Facebook by using social cognitive theory (SCT). Based on purposive sampling, questionnaires were distributed to 178 breast cancer patients in cancer support groups in Peninsular Malaysia. Through this study, a basis for the investigation of Malaysian social network support in using SNSs is successfully established.

“…A review of the literature suggests several approaches to measure Net Impacts of IS. Numerous researchers have focused on specific aspects of Net Impacts, such as organizational impact (Mirani and Lederer, 1998;Bradley, Pridmore and Byrd, 2006;Acheampong and Moyaid, 2016), individual impacts (Sedera, Gable and, & Chan, 2004;Bravo, Santana and Rodon, 2015), individual and organizational impacts (Sedera, Eden and McLean, 2013;Alshardan, Goodwin, and Rampersad, 2016), job performance (Torkzadeh and Doll, 1999;Sun and Teng, 2017;Ul-Ain, Vaia, and DeLone, 2019), collaborative performance (Andriessen, 2012;Hsu, et al, 2012), balanced scorecard approach (Martinsons, et al, 1999;Chang and King, 2005;Lee, Chen and Chang, 2008;Chen, et al, 2015 ;Hou, 2016;Motwani and Sharma, 2016 ;.

A Sustainability‑Based Multi‑Criteria Decision Approach for Information Systems Project Selection

An effective approach for evaluating and selecting information systems (IS) projects in project management from a sustainability perspective is highly desirable in contemporary organisations with sustainable objectives. Such an approach, however, is absent from the literature. This paper presents a multi-criteria analysis approach for effectively evaluating and selecting IS projects for project management in organisations based on their sustainability performance under environmental, economic, and social dimensions. Such an approach considers the subjective and uncertain nature of the IS project selection process using linguistic variables approximated by fuzzy numbers and effectively aggregates the subjective assessments for determining the overall sustainable performance of individual IS projects across all the selection criteria and their associated sub-criteria. The proposed multi-criteria decision-making approach provides organisations with a proactive mechanism for effectively evaluating and selecting IS projects from a sustainability perspective. An IS project selection problem is presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach.
