The primary purpose of this study is to develop a methodology that can be used to assess IS effectiveness in the Turkish Army. This study starts with the review of the information system effectiveness and assessment paradigms. Afterwards, influences of the characteristics of the Turkish Army on IS effectiveness assessment techniques are investigated. Observations and interviews are determined as the favorable data collection techniques. A user perceived effectiveness assessment instrument for semi-structured interviews is developed. Then a case study is applied to assess IS effectiveness in one of the units of the Turkish Army. At the end of the thesis, a qualitative assessment methodology based on maturity and key determinants of a successful IS are proposed for the Turkish Army.
