Title

Power: A critical systems development factor

Abstract

Information system development methodologies for complex management support systems require the information analyst to utilize concepts and techniques which are frequently viewed as being too intangible and abstract. The analyst's knowledge and techniques must accommodate the increased variations and complexities which commonly exist for management support systems at all levels of management. In this article, power is examined as an information systems development concept and as a basis for a technique which will enable the information analyst to identify the information requirements for management support systems more effectively.
