Abstract

Information systems development and implementation practices at ABC Ceramic Company reflect techno- scientific and economic reasoning that form the foundation of the western modernity with underlying positivist approach. This resulted failures in information systems development and implementation projects initiated by ABC Company. The study reveals that information systems should be developed taking into considerations the social contexts of organizations in Sri Lanka. This is illustrated using an in-depth case study.
