Strategic planning for information systems remains as one of the top concerns and continues to be a critical issue for many chief information officers and their organisations. Also, a comprehensive review of the recent information systems planning literature reveals that selecting a proper methodology used in developing an information systems plan is one of the success factors related to the success of the IS planning process. Although this individual success factor should have attracted more research and discussions, there have not been enough attempts to create a framework to compare and classify strategic information systems planning methodologies to select a proper method for a specific organisation with its unique requirements, hence a gap in literature. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is primarily to bridge this gap by proposing a conceptual framework to classify strategic information systems planning methodologies to choose the suitable methodology(ies) according to specific requirements of an organisation.
This study investigates the relationship between capital investment in telecommunications infrastructure (TELCOM) and tourist arrivals in developing countries. Additionally, it examines whether the public–private sectors relationship moderates the effect of TELCOM on inbound tourism. The model is empirically tested for 46 developing countries for the years 2005–2019. Applying system generalized method of moments and dynamic fixed-effects estimators, the results show there is a positive and significant relationship between TELCOM and tourist arrivals. We also find that a stronger relationship between the public and private sectors magnifies the positive effect of TELCOM on inbound tourism. The moderating effect of quality of regulations on TELCOM-tourism nexus is a novel finding, highlighting the important role of governments in creating and implementing sound policies and regulations that permit and promote private sector development.
