Abstract
Although managerial issues of data warehousing and business intelligence received considerable attention in recent years, the strategy process has not often been investigated. This is particularly true for the recently proposed, more holistic concept of information logistics. This paper discusses the state of the art of information logistics (IL) strategy and proposes a framework of analysis which combines supply chain oriented decomposition with functional decomposition. As a foundation for proposed strategy components, current IL strategy practices are analyzed by means of a survey. The findings show that IL strategy seems to be linked to company size, governance type (business line vs. business process), and IL organization. Supply chain oriented IL strategy components (sourcing, delivery, portfolio) gain less attention than IL solution development and maintenance strategy components.
