Resumo(s)
The Portuguese economy has always demonstrated low levels of productivity. Portuguese companies cannot compete with its Europeans counterparts, this situation is not desirable leading to a low PIB per capita. One of the main benefits of achieving a positive business-IT alignment is to improve a company’s overall productivity levels.
This master thesis tries to understand the Portuguese companies’ alignment levels, by getting to know some of them. Two objectives were defined, gathering information about the relationship between business and IT in some Portuguese companies and provide evidence if there is a relationship between the lack of Business IT alignment and the low levels of productivity present in Portuguese economy.
A survey performed by Jerry Luftman was done in the USA to try evaluating the level of fortune 500 companies, a survey following the same questions was done regarding Portugal. The survey results allowed us to characterize 15 Portuguese companies and understand how they operate. The results were used to try and help a company which alignment level was not desirable.
