✦ Synopsis

A large-scale distributed information processing system, designed by native human resource, was implemented for planning and control of development projects in a developing country in Asia. The system coordinated the activities of a number of central government agencies involved in development management and facilitated use of information technology for project management at the local level. The case demonstrated that information technology can be employed to promote decentralised development and maintain centralised control simultaneously in developing countries.
