A Framework for Evaluating Information Technology Foresight Projects
Journal Title: Roshd-e-Fanavari - Year 2009, Vol 5, Issue 17
Abstract
"There is a large consensus among academics and practitioners that ICT investments should be carefully justified, measured and controlled. ICT investments have special characteristics such as; high risks, limited return of investment, large proportion of intangible/hidden costs and benefits. These characteristics are highlighted for ICT foresight projects. There are many papers for evaluating ICT projects with BSC (Balanced Score Card), but there is no work for evaluating IT foresight projects. This paper presents a framework for using balance score card for evaluating IT foresight projects. The result should be beneficial for researchers, managers, decision makers and investors."
