[Basten, Dirk]

2nd CALL FOR PAPERS | AMCIS 2017, Boston, August 10-12, 2017 | https://amcis2017.aisnet.org/
IT Project Management (SIGITProjMgmt) track | IT PROJECT SUCCESS minitrack

Minitrack Description
The challenge of successfully accomplishing information technology (IT) projects is still prevailing. In both research and practice, many efforts have been made to identify factors that help to avoid failure and to ensure success. Additionally, a central aspect of IT project success research deals with its measurement. This minitrack seeks high quality research papers that investigate the linkage of IT project success factors and success criteria. We call for studies explaining how (well-known) success factors contribute to specific IT project success criteria. In this regard, we welcome both conceptual and empirical papers that employ a variety of quantitative and qualitative methodologies.

Potential Topics
Possible topics thus include, but are not limited to:
•      Development approaches and its contribution to adherence to budget / schedule
•      Team composition and its contribution to process efficiency
•      Client-vendor communication and its contribution to customer satisfaction
•      Project governance and its contribution to adherence to budget / schedule
•      Time pressure and its contribution to system quality
•      Training and its contribution to end-user satisfaction
•      Top management commitment and its contribution to stakeholder satisfaction
•      Requirements uncertainty and its contribution to strategic benefits
•      Change of the vendor and its contribution to process efficiency
