The Indonesian Stock Exchange (IDX) is a capital market regulator that relies heavily on information technology (IT) for its operational activities. The IDX faces substantial difficulties in software development due to frequent changes initiated by various divisions, resulting in extra third-party charges for each request and leading to substantial costs. This article aims to identify the factors influencing resource allocation costs and to provide recommendations for improving resource allocation in software development project management. This article used a mixed-method approach combining both qualitative and quantitative methodologies, which involves conducting interviews with multiple stakeholders and reviewing literature that employs various frameworks, such as project management body of knowledge, control objective for information technologies, and simple multiattribute rating for decision-making. The primary objective of this article is to identify and categorize the key factors influencing decisions on sourcing schemes in software development project management by examining resource allocation and prioritization, particularly in engagements with third parties. This article provides insights to enhance the efficiency of software project management practices. This article proposes company to adopt the Synergy Blend approach to improve resource allocation and project management within software development. The Synergy Blend approach combines the elements of waterfall and agile methodologies based on each software's specifics in maximizing resource allocation and aligning project goals. However, the implementation of the IT program and portfolio management has limited improvement benefits. Furthermore, this article directly supports the growth of the company by optimizing resource allocation, reducing costs, and enhancing software development processes.

The current study evaluates agility performance of information technology (IT) enabled supply chain using the lens of information security orientation (ISO). More specifically, the moderation effect of ISO on the link between IT-enablement (ITE) and supply chain agility performance is investigated. A novel measurement scale is developed to evaluate the ISO construct. The study answers two main questions: First, how does ITE affect supply chain agility performance; and second, does ISO moderate this relationship and how? An empirical analysis is conducted using data collected from IT managers, supply chain managers, plant managers, and logistics’ managers from multiple industries. After controlling for the effect of firm size, relationship age, relationship size, and industry type, the study finds that ITE is positively associated with supply chain agility performance, and ISO is a significant moderator to this relationship. Supply chain organizations that implement high levels of ISO can realize higher agility performance from ITE than their, otherwise, counterparts. The newly developed ISO scale can support managers interested in evaluating the level of ISO adopted by their organizations. The article discusses several managerial implications of our findings, including findings related to the control variables.
本研究以信息安全导向(ISO)为视角,对信息技术(IT)赋能供应链的敏捷性绩效进行了评估。更具体地说,研究了 ISO 对信息技术启用(ITE)与供应链敏捷性绩效之间联系的调节作用。研究开发了一种新的测量量表来评估 ISO 构建。研究回答了两个主要问题:首先,ITE 如何影响供应链敏捷性绩效;其次,ISO 是否会调节这种关系,如何调节?研究利用从多个行业的 IT 经理、供应链经理、工厂经理和物流经理那里收集到的数据进行了实证分析。在控制了公司规模、关系年龄、关系规模和行业类型的影响后,研究发现 ITE 与供应链敏捷性绩效呈正相关,而 ISO 对这种关系具有显著的调节作用。与其他组织相比,实施高水平 ISO 的供应链组织能从 ITE 中获得更高的敏捷性绩效。新开发的 ISO 量表可为有意评估其组织所采用的 ISO 水平的管理人员提供支持。文章讨论了我们的研究结果对管理的影响,包括与控制变量相关的研究结果。

Roadmapping is a powerful and scalable systems-based approach for supporting strategic alignment within and between organizations. Although established practice in industry, roadmapping is seldom considered in mainstream management research, teaching, and textbooks. To address this gap, this article provides a brief overview of roadmapping practice and concept, highlighting three functions that should be more widely appreciated: Roadmapping for communication and consensus; diagnostics and learning, and prime systems integrator.
