Systems have:
◦ Holism
the whole is greater than the sum of the parts
◦ Entropy
levels of disorder
◦ Equifinality
more than one way to put the system together
Ashby‟s Law of Requisite Variety
◦ systems must be flexible
Hard vs. Soft Systems
◦ hard systems have explicit objectives. Soft systems are
unpredictable

IT as a resource?
IT as a means of supporting and/or
enhancing current organizational capabilities?
IT as a basis for enabling new capability
creation?
IT as infrastructure for the firm?
IT as a means of communication within and
beyond the firm?
IT as a distribution channel for products?
Is IT all of these, or something else
altogether?

1. Initiation
• The computer is used for low level transaction
processing
2. Contagion
• Enthusiasm grows, but understanding doesn‟t
3. Control
• The data processing department is reorganised
to provide more control of project development
4. Integration
• Data processing becomes more oriented
towards information provision
5. Data Administration
• Users become more accountable for the
integrity and correct use of the information
6. Maturity
There is a recognition of the strategic
importance of information

understand the future and ways of changing what they do
to align themselves with future trends/directions
Discovery

Flexibility is key
◦ Support a variety of styles, skills and knowledge
◦ Multiple analytical models
Needs to reflect an understanding of
organisational processes
Must be sensitive to bureaucratic and
political requirements
Must reflect an awareness of its limitations
