Stratejik Uyumlaşma Olgunluk Ölçeğinin Türkçeye Uyarlanması

Öz

Destek fonksiyonu olmanın ötesinde, işetmelere rekabet avantajı sağlamaya başlayan Bilti Teknolojileri, aynı zamanda işletme stratejilerini de önemli ölçüde etkileyerek yön verebilmektedir. Ne var ki Bilgi Teknolojileri stratejilerinin işletme stratejileri uyumlu bir şekilde çalışmamaları, rekabet avantajından çok işletmeye zarar verir hale gelebilmektedir. Bilgi Teknolojileri’nin etkin kullanımı için bir çok model geliştirilmiş olmakla birlikte, stratejik uyumlaşmayı ölçebilecek bir yöntem ya da ölçek Türkçe’de bulunmamaktadır.Bu çalışmada, Bilgi Teknolojileri stratejilerinin işletme stratejileri ile uyumlaşma seviyesini ölçebilecek ve aynı zamanda da bu uyumlaşmanın sağlanmasına yardımcı olabilecek bir araç olarak da kullanılabilen Stratejik Uyumlaşma Olgunluk Modeli (SAMM) ölçeği, güvenilirlik ve geçerlilik testleri yapılarak Türkçe’ye uyarlanmştır.

Adaptation of Strategic Alignment Maturity Model (SAMM) Into Turkish

Abstract

Beyond being a support function, Information Technologies, which has started to provide a competitive advantage to businesses, can also lead to a significant impact on business strategies. However, information technology strategies, not aligned with business strategies may create more damage then competitive advantage. Although a number of models have been developed for the effective use of Information Technologies in an organization, a method or scale that can be used to measure the strategic alignment between business and information technology strategies is not available in Turkish. In this study, Strategic Alignment Maturity Model (SAMM) scale which can also be used as a tool to improve the level of alignment between Information Technology and business strategies, was adapted in to Turkish.
