Using Management Objectives to Specify Management Information Systems - A Contribution to MIS Success

: Data warehouse projects, today, are in an ambivalent situation. On the one hand, data warehouses are critical for a company's success and various methodological and technological tools are sophisticatedly developed to implement them. On the other hand, a significant amount of data warehouse projects fails due to non-technical reasons such as insufficient management support or incorporative employees. But management support and user participation can be increased dramatically with specification methods that are understandable to these user groups. This paper aims at overcoming possible non-technical failure reasons by introducing a user-adequate specification approach within the field of management information systems.
