Based on the development of IT(information technology), the explosive diffusion and growth of the new media and services in Korea has attracted keen international attention. The construction of IT infrastructure driven by the proactive social informatization policy of the government has also been spectacular. Korea has persistently pursued strong 'new media-informatization policy' with three main objectives in mind: 1)Industrial-economic value creation; 2)socio-cultural value creation; and 3)building of the knowledge society-knowledge state. But its consequence is rather paradoxical. While its performance is excellent in terms of quantity growth of industry and technology, quality development of society, culture and knowledge creation is lagging far behind. This paradoxical outcome originates, not from any simple policy error, but from a structural problem inherent in new media-informatization policy in Korea which has long been captured by developmentalism. In order for Korea to harvest the reward of strong new media-informatization infrastructure, it needs to institute a policy structure based on a knowledge IT strategy such as research and development of core and patent technologies, design and production of quality contents, networking knowledge bases of society, etc.

In the information systems literature from Korea, there has not been much research on formative constructs. It is crucial to establish a proper relationship between constructs and indicators. In other words, it is fundamental to specify reflective or formative constructs in evaluating performance as closely as possible to reality, and in testing the appropriateness of a proper causal model. One purpose of this study is that, through a comprehensive literature review, reflective and formative indicators are accurately understood, and a proper specification and development methodology is applied to the information system evaluation field. In addition, this study provides a useful guideline for developing formative indicators for performance evaluation of informatization programs. The following activities were undertaken to achieve the aforementioned purposes. First, the basic theories and preceding study models on successful factors of informatization programs and performance evaluations were reviewed, and a comprehensive interdisciplinary literature review was conducted to better understand the formative constructs. Lastly, we provide a construct for performance evaluation of informatization programs and evaluation indicators, as well as guidelines for specifying them. Therefore, by systematically specifying proper constructs, future domestic researchers can develop better constructs for performance evaluation of informatization programs.

The ROK military is making a great effort and investment in establishing network-centric warfare, a future battlefield concept, as a major step in the establishment of a basic plan for military innovation. In the military organization level, an advanced process is introduced to shorten the command control time of the military and the business process is improved to shorten the decision time. In the information system dimension, an efficient resource management is achieved by establishing an automated command control system and a resource management information system by using the battle management information system. However, despite these efforts, we must evaluate the present level of informatization in an objective manner and assess the current progress toward the future goal of the military by using objective indicators. In promoting informatization, we must systematically identify the correct areas of improvement and identify policy directions to supplement in the future. Therefore, by analyzing preliminary research, workshops, and expert discussions on the major informatization level evaluation models at home and abroad, this study develops an evaluation model and several indicators that systematically reflect the characteristics of military organizations. The developed informatization level evaluation model is verified by conducting a feasibility test for the troops of the operation class or higher. We expect that this model will be able to objectively diagnose the level of informatization of the ROK military by putting budget and resources into the right place at the right time and to rapidly improve the vulnerability of the information sector.

The purpose of this research is to develop a standard model for the compilation of production results in molding business to establish the informatization system for the production facility among informatizadon projects which can generate the performance of medium and short term introduction of the project in implementing the system to small and medium industry. The theory on the development method for the standardization of informatization for production facility in molding business applies PSDM (Production System Development Method) for which a number of researches were already done while developing a standardization model by standardizing two processes of raw material demand/supply management and making sum total for production quantity which are main processes for production management process. On the basis of the result of this research, small and medium companies in molding business and relevant specialized IT companies which desire to establish production facility informatization systems will be able to establish more efficient system by applying standardized model, and the result of research will enable to facilitate the establishment of the system for them while providing reliability of the system. Through the application of the result of this research, it will be possible to accomplish the elimination of unreasonable factors in production process, the enhancement of product quality and the saving of production cost.

This study aims to understand the IT savvy degree and the keyword changes on the informatization issues in rural areas during the pandemic status of COVID-19. In the analysis result, we could understand that the informatization policies in rural areas have focused on reducing negative influences on the issues of university entrance exams and higher-level education and economic vulnerabilities. According to the sentiment analysis results on the keywords related to the informatization policies in rural areas, the IT-savvy performance - the improvement of the digital divide and IT utilization capabilities in rural areas - was positively understood. The study is one of the earlier studies considering the relationship between the pandemic of COVID-19 and informatization in rural areas. But still there are limitations of collecting more meaningful data and basic level keywords analysis because of the negative pandemic diffusion of COVID-19.

As Small and Medium Enterprises(SMEs)' dependency on major companies is increasing every day, the importance of the IT collaboration between those is being highlighted more than ever. However, the information level of the SMEs is much inferior and lack of capital, low level of management and the problem of the informatization are being raised. Therefore, the methods to improve the level of the infrastructure for the informatization need to be performed based on the current status of the SMEs. In this paper, we proposed the ways to manage key performance indicators(KPI) of each business process by inducing and prioritizing the KPIs which has higher accomplishment compared to its management rate. As the result of the present study reflects the priorities of KPIs, it may contribute to the accomplishment of the efficient informatization that considers the enterprise's size.

With the increase of global competition and the reduction of the lifecycle of business process, most leading companies begin to adopt BPO(Business Process Outsourcing), by outsourcing the whole or part of their business process to external service providers and focusing on their core capability, in order to enhance their core competency, In adopting BPO, it is an important decision-making issue that which part of process should be outsourced. So identifying core/non-core process among the business processes is a prerequisite for managing corporate capability and performance of outsourcing. In this study, by focusing on knowledge intensity and degree of informatization of the business process that are important factors in adopting BPO, we have analyzed the current status of BPO adoption of domestic firms and proposed several guidelines for adopting BPO.

The defense IT master plan is the plan for promoting defense informatization and is established by the Ministry of National Defense every five years. In addition, an implementation plan has been established in accordance with the master plan every year to promote the informatization project. However, since there is no systematic methodology to check and analyze the master plan comprehensively, it is difficult to judge whether the goals suggested in the master plan are achieved, and continuous monitoring of the project is limited. This study proposes a concept and framework for defense IT investment management and proposes a methodology for examining and analyzing the progress of the defense IT plan by referring to the U.S. Department of Defense's IT Plan and the performance management structure of the national IT master plan. As a methodology for managing defense IT investment, we propose an IT investment management code system from the perspective of an IT portfolio and verify its applicability through case studies. The results of this study are expected to improve the defense IT performance management system and improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the defense IT project.

The Government Informatization Policy Plan represents the government's technology policy vision and a set of ICT policy agenda and initiatives for the tenure of the government. The Policy Plan, however, normally produces an excess of disconcerted and superfluous ICT policy proposals from various policy units in the government. To cope with the superficiality of the ICT policy set in the Policy Plan, this paper proposes an analysis of the epistemology of the policy set. A policy is constructed as an argument and the structure of the policy argument is analysed using a model of argumentation. The findings show that the present informatization policy is driven by three epistemological motives - the production, consumption, and performance of the ICT Technology. The various assumptions and premises that underlie and direct the generation of ICT policy arguments with different motives are idenfied and then are exposed to strong rebuttal arguments to evaluate their epistemological tenability. The policy implications of the epistemological analysis are discussed in the end.
