چکیده
The institutionalisation of information systems allows managers in organisations to concentrate on and devote creative energy to their prime tasks. This paper argues that the process of deciding whether an information system is institutionalised or not can be understood better by examining its political dimension. We focus on the failure to institutionalise the London Ambulance Service information system. Our analysis unravels the political factors that influenced the system breakdown and its abandonment. In doing so, we propose a framework grounded on the interpretive tradition of research into information systems. The framework we are introducing will contribute to the understanding of power and institutionalisation, in research into organisational information systems. Becoming part of the furniture
