Strategic information system planning (SISP) is a long-standing issue for both scholars and practitioners. Although many studies have been done on SISP success, firms still face with SISP failure. Reviewing previous SISP literature shows that organizational aspects have been neglected in SISP studies. Therefore, this study attempts to fulfil this gap by proposing a conceptual model for SISP success. Using Resource Based View (RBV) as underlying theory, in this paper, we investigated the firm-wide IS capabilities as drivers (i.e. organizational factors) of SISP success. Six firm wide IS capabilities were identified that are internal and external IS relationships capability, IS knowledge and skills capability, IS planning and change management capability, IS-business integration capability, and IS infrastructure capability. Furthermore, we hypothesized that top management support and formalization are antecedents of SISP success. Generally, the contribution of this study is developing a comprehensive and theory-based model for SISP success in terms of its antecedents and drivers.
