Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to propose critical success factors for effectively managing information systems(IS) outsourcing. The survey method was used for this paper, and data from a total 106 companies that were listed greater than $10 million were used for the analysis. To analyze the data, structural equation model was used. The results of this empirical study is summarized as follows. First, both formal control based on contract and informal control based on trust have a positive effect on control level which is a determinant indicator of IS outsourcing performance. Second, management capability such as preparedness capability and relationship capability have a positive effect on formal and informal control mechanism. The findings have important implications for the role of trust and management capability in formal management control.

본 논문의 목적은 정보시스템 아웃소싱을 효과적으로 관리하기 위해서 필요한 주요성공요인들을 제안하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 설문조사 방법을 이용하였고, 분석용 데이터는 연매출 100억이상 기업을 대상으로 수집한 총 106개의 설문지를 사용하였다. 분석결과, 첫째, 계약을 바탕으로 한 공식적 통제 메커니즘과 신뢰를 중심으로 한 비공식적 통제 메커니즘은 모두 정보시스템 아웃소싱 성과의 결정요인인 통제수준에 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 준비능력, 관계능력 등 관리능력은 공식적 비공식적 통제 메커니즘의 영향요인으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과는 공식적인 관리통제에 있어서 신뢰와 관리능력의 역할을 제시했다는 점에서 의미가 있다.
