Adaptation of a planning system success model to information systems planning

A study adapted a model developed to measure planning systems success to the information systems (IS) context. The research was motivated by the increasing importance given to IS planning in recent years, the lack of an empirical model to measure IS planning system success, and the usefulness of developing such a model to help guide future research. An operational model for measuring IS planning system success is developed in terms of 2 interrelated dimensions: IS planning system capabilities and extent of fulfillment of key IS planning objectives. The model meets the measurement criteria suggested in the literature.
