[ID#] 2 [Author(s)] Dr. Joe McDonagh; Jorge Diaz-Padilla [Abstract] The information systems (IS) strategic planning field has been evolving continuously since the 1960�s. In order to understand both its evolutionary path and probable future directions, an assessment was made of its progression over time along with the emergence of key research themes. An investigation was performed by focusing on published articles that incorporate the IS planning topic. While the results demonstrate the relevance and importance of the field, recurrent problems indicate that further research is still required. This investigation also explored the contribution of academic articles to theory development within the IS strategic planning domain while also critiquing the research methodologies applied during empirical investigations. A more detailed critique of extant journals that publish IS strategic planning research suggests that fewer articles are being published by academics within this area, implying a reduction in its importance, and its interest or relevance to organisations and researchers.
