Today, information technology has come to play a more and more important role in most organizations and especially in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Researchers give different meanings to the concept of IT as how IT is used or interpreted in organizations. This thesis focuses on the impact of IT on organizational structure. A framework for analysis consisting of four eras of IT use has been developed and forms the basis of the research methods for analyzing the effects of IT in SMEs. In the framework, the dominant technology actually creates an organization metaphor, which helps to determine how organizational structures will be affected by the use of information technology. The variables to be investigated in the areas of organizational structure are control, specialization, formalization, span of control, communication and collaboration, and inter-organizational relations. The results prove that IT has significant impacts on decentralization, specialization, communication, and inter-organizational relations. Also, it is clear that managerial support for IT and IT implementation is found to be a major factor for information technology to be used effectively....Preview Download Preview +Other Computer Science project topics and materials you might be interested in»Design and Implementation of digital library system»Design and Implementation of a Virtual E-Learning System ( Case study of Lagos State University)»Design and Implementation of online cash receipt generating system for a supermarket»Design and Implementation of computerized hospital database management system»Design and Implementation of Student Project Management and Allocation System»Design and Implementation of a Software Result Processing and Transcript Generation System»Design and Implementation of a Hotel Database Management System and Service ( A Case Study of Winter Suites and Hotels, Owerri)»Design and Implementation of Online Birth and Death Registration System»Design and Implementation of Online Clearance System»Design and Implementation of Loan Management System with SMS Notification»Design and Implementation of Computerized Staff Record Department»Design and Implementation of Cyber Cafe Security»Design and Implementation of N.Y.S.C Posting System ( A case study of N.Y.S.C Enugu)»Design and Implementation of a Computerized Fraud Detection in a Bank»Design and Simulation of a Secured Wireless Network
