Excerpt from Strategic Issues in Information Technology: Sourcing: Patterns, Perspectives, and Prescriptions During Fall 1991, we wrote to the ceos of the Fortune 500 industrial and service corporations with an invitation to participate in our Study on Information Technology Strategy. We requested each of them to provide us with names of the senior manager with the overall responsibility for IT (cio) as well as those heading three specific IT domains: application development, data center, and telecommunications/ network. Subsequently, 209 corporations took part in our study (see Appendix for a complete list). The surveys were administered to the appropriate executives during Spring Summer 1992. On November 19, 1992, we invited the cio or a senior representative from each of the participating corporations to a symposium in Cambridge, Massachusetts. This forum was co-organized by the Center for Information Systems Research, mit and the Systems Research Center, Boston University. The responses of the participants during this meeting were generally enthusiastic. In fact, our understanding of the research issues was enriched through the various face-to-face conversations with the participants at the symposium. This report is a summary of the research conducted on IT sourcing strategy at Sloan over the last year. It integrates the results drawn from our surveys of Fortune 500 corporations with other studies we conducted using secondary data sources. Further, it incorporates some of the insightful observations provided by speakers and audience during the symposium.
