Keeping competitiveness is not enough; therefore, many contemporary organizations grasp information technology strategy and implementation to search for excellence or being excellent. Driving the IT department fluently and effectively is a very important issue in contemporary organizations, especially for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs). However, lack of information, technology, and usable resources hamper the formation and implementation of effective IT strategies towards the organizational goals. This study thoroughly describes and analyzes a case of IT strategy formation and implementation processes in a small and medium-sized manufacturing firm from a Contextualist Perspective along with related organizational theories and information science. Through the case study and the review of related literatures, the author constructed a perspective for IT department management; and this case study is also used to develop some general implications on this area, which can be taken as the base for future investigation.
