Abstract:

Increasing informatisation of the society and the introduction of information technologies increases the level of dependence of organisations on information technologies. Currently, it is difficult to find business processes/activities, which are not in any way dependent on technologies. Dependence has reached such a level that virtually no organization can work effectively without access to IT. Implementation of information systems, their development and maintenance can significantly help to achieve sustainable competitive advantage of an organization. IT Governance as an integral part of organizational management at the highest level supports effective management of information resources to promote the achievement of strategic objectives of the organization. The size of a company has, among other things, a significant impact on selected areas of strategic alignment of IS/IT with business activities. The results of a research conducted in Slovakia at 363 enterprises deepen and expand the knowledge of strategic alignment of IT with business activities and examine the significant difference in strategic alignment of IT with business activities among enterprises of different sizes.
