is little consensus on what is meant by the term inadequate treatment and how it influences systems’ success. To test several
theoretically plausible hypotheses, a questionnaire was mailed to senior information system (IS) executives and 344 valid
responses were received. The results of a statistical analysis indicate that higher levels of systems’ success are associated with
treating a wide range of organizational issues throughout the development process and ensuring that members of the user
community are actively involved.
