Abstract

This paper examines User Developed Applications (UDAs) with the goal of providing a framework that managers can use for identifying and supporting appropriate UDAs. Tradeoffs between UDAs and traditionally developed systems throughout the systems development life cycle are identified. Steps that managers can take to: 1) ensure that only appropriate UDAs are developed and 2) improve the logical correctness and usability of the systems in an organizational context are indicated. Finally, suggestions are made for further research aimed at increasing the likelihood of UDA success. Three mini cases are provided as an appendix to illustrate the ideas developed in this analysis.
