RESUMO
Line managers are increasingly assuming responsibility for planning, building, and running information systems that affect their operations. This is forcing organizations to evaluate how they allocate IT decision-making responsibilities. This paper describes a conceptual framework and an intervention process that can help firms devise and implement an effective IT management architecture. The authors illustrate their methods with real world examples.

The purpose of this pilot project was to develop a verifiable method of empirically estimating heroin usage in a defined geographic area. If such a methodology could be constructed, appropriate officials could employ the procedure to promote planning, prevention, and education projects, and to evaluate on-going programs. Thus, should such a technique be developed, it could replace more traditional and empirically unconfirmed methods. Employing data furnished by local law-enforcement social, and medical agencies, a questionnaire was developed, pretested, and applied to a selected sample of the stipulated population.
