Abstract(s)
Maturity models have been introduced, over the last four decades, as
guides and references for Information System (IS) management in
organizations from different sectors of activity. In the educational field,
maturity models have also been used to deal with the enormous complexity and
demand of Educational Information Systems. This article presents a research
project that aims to develop a new comprehensive maturity model for the
Higher Education Institutions (HEI) area. The HEIMM (Higher Education
Institutions Maturity Model) will be developed to help HEI to address the
complexity of there IS, as a useful tool for the demanding role of the
management of these systems, and institutions as well. The HEIMM will have
the peculiarity of congregating a set of key maturity influence factors and
respective characteristics, enabling not only the assessment of the global
maturity of the HEI IS but also the individual maturity of its different
dimensions. In this article, we present the second phase of our project by
discussing the methodology for the development of maturity models that will be
adopted for the design of the HEIMM and the underlying reasons for its choice.
