What is it about?

The paper sets out an argument for a way to design, implement, and manage information systems with an emphasis on first, the learning that can be created through undertaking the approach, and second, the learning that may be created through using the information system. The paper proposes joining two areas of research namely, technology management with soft systems methodology (SSM).

Why is it important?

By expanding Soft Systems Methodology and joining it with a Technology Management process framework gives individuals and teams a practical tool to help design, implement, and manage information systems with an emphasis on learning the framework promotes.

Perspectives

The framework provides advantages for academics, consultants and other practitioners and gives a central focus on what issues need to be accomplished more explicitly in order to undertake an information systems development project.
