An Evaluation System for a National Defense Informatization Project at the Pre-Project Stage

摘要

Measuring the success of an Information Technology (IT) investment is a difficult task. However, for the selection of an effective IT project within the limited budget the performance of an IT project should be measured. The measurement of the performance of Information Systems (IS) can improve the success of an IT project. This study presents an evaluation system for a National Defense Informatization (NDI) project in the Republic of Korea's Ministry of National Defense (MND) to choose effective IT projects. During the pre-project (especially budgeting) stage evaluation, informatization projects are evaluated on the dimensions of the propriety of project planning, the propriety of performance planning, the propriety of applied technology, budgets and period and economical efficiency.
