The adoption of Information Technology (IT) and Information Systems (IS)
represents significant financial investments, with alternative perspectives to
the evaluation domain coming from both the public and private sectors.

As a result of increasing IT/IS budgets and their growing significance within
the development of an organizational infrastructure, the evaluation and
performance measurement of new technology remains a perennial issue for
management. This book offers a refreshing and updated insight into the social
fabric and technical dimensions of IT/IS evaluation together with insights into
approaches used to measure the impact of information systems on its
stakeholders. In doing so, it describes the portfolio of appraisal techniques
that support the justification of IT/IS investments.

Evaluating Information Systems explores the concept of evaluation as an
evolutionary and dynamic process that takes into account the ability of
enterprise technologies to integrate information systems within and between
organisations. In particular, when set against a backdrop of organisational
learning. It examines the changing portfolio of benefits, costs and risks
associated with the adoption and diffusion of technology in today's global
marketplace. Finally approaches to impact assessment through performance
management and benchmarking is discussed.
