The hidden costs of implementing and maintaining information systems
Abstract
There are costs associated with the acquisition, implementation, and operation of information systems beyond the price of hardware and software. As these costs sometimes account for budget shortfall, it is important to recognize problem areas and minimize their impact on the organization. Potential hidden costs, including costs that may be hidden by managers, as well as costs that may be hidden from them, are identified and recommendations offered for avoiding serious consequences.
