Abstract

Research has shown that companies with IT-systems aligned with its business strategy are achieving competitive advantage, but the process of developing fit-for-purpose systems is not a trivial task. Development methods are studied both from the business domain by IT-alignment research and from the software engineering domain by requirements engineering research. Both domains approach the problem slightly differently, but with the shared outcome, and as a result, the domains are interrelated. Modern literature proposes a variety of new approaches that interestingly combine the fields in the hopes of building IT-systems that serves the business strategy, or more increasingly to build completely new business models with IT as a central component. This systematic literature review seeks to uncover methods proposing to solve these problems.
