Q & A

What is strategic information system planning?

Strategic information system planning is the process of creating and managing information systems that support a company’s strategic goals, enhance competitiveness, and identify new profitable business opportunities.

What are the four phases of the strategic information system planning process?

The four phases are: 1) Assessing the current position (analyzing internal and external factors), 2) Designing strategies to move from the current to the desired state, 3) Building a strategic plan with clear, measurable objectives, and 4) Managing the execution of the strategy through monitoring and review.

Why is it important to understand the company's current position in the planning process?

Understanding the current position helps identify strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT analysis), providing a foundation for developing a strategy that aligns with both internal capabilities and external market conditions.

What does the design phase in strategic information system planning involve?

The design phase involves formulating a clear strategy to move the organization from its current state to the desired future state, focusing on the company's mission, vision, and objectives from multiple perspectives, including finance, customers, operations, and people.

What criteria should be considered when building a strategic plan?

The strategic plan should be SMART: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Time-bound. The plan must align with organizational goals and be actionable to ensure successful implementation.

How does the 'manage' phase ensure the effectiveness of the strategic plan?

The 'manage' phase ensures effective execution by focusing on three key factors: assigning clear responsibilities to people, setting up systems for tracking performance, and scheduling regular reviews to assess progress.

What tools can help in identifying external business conditions in strategic planning?

The primary tools for identifying external business conditions include Porter's Five Forces analysis (which examines competitive pressure), PEST (Political, Economic, Social, and Technological factors), and the SWOT matrix to align external opportunities and threats with internal strengths and weaknesses.

What is the role of internal business analysis in strategic information systems planning?

Internal business analysis identifies the company’s internal processes, stakeholder interactions, and value chain. This analysis helps identify areas of strength to leverage and weaknesses to address in the strategic plan.

How does the McFarland Strategic Matrix aid in decision-making during the planning process?

The McFarland Strategic Matrix maps internal strengths and weaknesses against external opportunities and threats, helping to develop strategies such as using strengths to seize opportunities or minimizing weaknesses to mitigate threats.

What is the Balanced Scorecard, and how does it assist in strategic information system planning?

The Balanced Scorecard is a performance management tool that helps organizations identify strategic needs from four perspectives: financial, customer, internal processes, and learning and growth. It guides decision-making by ensuring that all aspects of the strategy are aligned and measurable.
