Abstract
This study is to propose a framework for analyzing the role of information systems in organizations, and to make an overture it's applicability for empirical studies to be performed in the future. To accomplish these purposes, this study identified major dimensions which can explain the introduction of various applications based on the interviews with IS staffs of a domestic car manufacturing firm, and reviewed the past researches which discussed the roles of information systems regarding those dimensions. From this mixed approach, this study defined the research dimensions to analyze the role of information systems, which are consisted of the purpose of information processing and the scope of information processing. And then, this study performed the longitudinal case study to analyze the role of information systems in organizational growth based on the framework.
