Mapping IS failure factors on PRINCE2® stages: an application of Interpretive Ranking Process (IRP)

Abstract: The social, political and cultural issues faced by organizations and their senior management team in the delivery and adoption of strategic projects, is highly complex and problematic. Despite a mature body of literature, increasing levels of practitioner certification, application of standards and numerous government initiatives, improvements in success have been minimal. In this study we analyse the key underlying factors surrounding the failure of Information Systems (IS) projects and explore the merits of … Show more

“…This provides the room for future work of expanding the scope of the approach employed in this research to incorporate the technology adoption aspects and models (see for example, Dwivedi et al 2017a, b;Rana and Dwivedi 2015;Rana et al 2016Rana et al , 2017. This is particularly important as a large number of IS/IT projects fail (Dwivedi et al 2014;Hughes et al 2016Hughes et al , 2017 due to lack of adoption and use of technologies and/or applications in question.…”

“…The citizens are one of the most important stakeholders of such developments. Hence, in order to avoid resistance from stakeholders and failure of such initiatives Hughes et al 2016Hughes et al , 2017, the perceptions of citizens and government employees towards various aspects of smart cities should also be explored by utilising established theories and models (see for example, AlAlwan et al 2017;Dwivedi et al 2011aDwivedi et al , 2011bDwivedi et al , 2013Dwivedi et al , 2016Dwivedi et al , 2017bDwivedi et al , 2017cHossain and Dwivedi 2014;Kapoor et al 2014aKapoor et al , 2014bKapoor et al , 2015Rana and Dwivedi 2015;Rana et al 2015aRana et al , 2015bRana et al , 2016Rana et al , 2017Shareef et al 2011Shareef et al , 2016aShareef et al , 2016bShareef et al , 2017Sinha et al 2017;Slade et al 2015;Veeramootoo et al 2018;Weerakkody et al 2013Weerakkody et al , 2017) from information systems and electronic government domains.…”

“…It is therefore not surprising that more recent technological systems like ‗management systems', and the technically hybrid telematics systems of the information technology age, have come to espouse and express a different spirit altogether calling these non-grid based hybrid projects of the 1970s and 1980s ‗post-modern' technologies (Hughes, Dwivedi, & Rana, 2017). As a rule, they involve not only technical or engineering problems, but substantial political, social and environmental issues.…”
