IT PROJECT SUCCESS<br>
IT Project Management (SIGITProjMgmt) track<br>
<br>
The challenge of successfully completing information technology (IT) projects is still prevailing. Dominant research streams focus on achieving success (i.e., through the identification of success factors) or avoiding failure (i.e., through the identification
of failure factors). In addition, a central aspect of IT project success research deals with the measurement of success. Whereas the traditional and still most widely applied approach to measure success is adherence to planning (i.e., project conformance to
budget, schedule, and specified requirements), criteria like stakeholder satisfaction or strategic benefits for the contracting organization have been proposed to be used additionally or alternatively to adherence to planning. Beside the phenomenon of differences
between traditional success assessments and subjective perceptions of stakeholders, the measurability of success criteria is an issue yet to be solved.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span lang="EN-US" style="color:black">This minitrack seeks high quality research papers that investigate various aspects of IT project success. In that light, we welcome both conceptual and empirical papers
that employ a variety of quantitative and qualitative methodologies. Possible topics include, but are not limited to:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
