Introduction
Building a new information system is one kind of
planned organizational change. The introduction of a
new information system involves much more than new
hardware and software.
The existence of information system -- whether this
may be creating new one, minorly develop the existing
system, or massively change the system -- will affect
organizational change.

redesigning the organization. System builders must
understand how a system will affect specific business
processes and the organization as a whole.
