“…Taking a business perspective, the role of methodologies, evolutionary development approaches, speed of development and effective project management have all been topics of concern for many years (Avison & Fitzgerald, 1995;Gilb, 1988;Boehm, 1988). Rather than viewing Web commerce as a radically new development paradigm it can be viewed as an evolutionary stage in the discipline of information systems.…”

“…Rather than viewing Web commerce as a radically new development paradigm it can be viewed as an evolutionary stage in the discipline of information systems.

Abstract:This paper .provides a discussion of the Australian telecommunications company One.TeI Limited. The pa~er exa~mes the information technology strategies employed by the company and assesses the extent to whl~h a fal~ure of those strategies may have contributed to, or precipitated, the downfall of the business. In particular, It looks at the company through the lens of Johnson and Scholes' (1993) cultural b Thi .. we. ISperspectJ:re provides clear evidence of failings at the company, which were likely to have led to failure in its ITIIS pohcy and applications which, in turn, at least partly explains the downfall of the business.
