摘要
Strategic alignment of information technology (IT) is required to be included in the firms' core activity in today's business environment. The purpose of this study is to understand the impact of 'IT connectivity, IT infrastructure and IT human resources' on 'IT business strategic alignment' by developing a model, in public and private organizations in India. A questionnaire was used to measure the constructs after its validity and reliability. The findings discovered that firms' IT strategic alignment was significantly impacted by three IT dimensions, that is, IT connectivity, IT infrastructure and IT human resources (combined as IT capability). The IT investments and expenditures of a firm are aligned with its business objectives and priorities. Furthermore, the significant role of these dimensions in public and private organizations in India was examined.
