An IS strategy brings together the business aim
of the company, an understanding of the
information needed to support those aim and
the implementation of computer systems to
provide that information. It is a plan for the
development of systems towards some future
vision of the role of IS in the organization

Current Definition of SISP
“The continuous review of computer technology,
applications and management structure to
ensure that current anticipated information and
process needs of the organization are met in a
way that provides an acceptable return of
investment (ROI), is sensitive to the dynamic
politics and culture of the organization and is
aware of the sociological environment within
which the organization exists.” Mc Bride, 1998
