Since the beginning of the 21st century, investment in IT in corporations began to decrease and the stock values of the corporations in the IT industry have declined. Thus, a variety of methodologies and indicators for measuring IT performance have been developed so that the management can validate investment in IT.The study investigated correlation between Information Productivity and key success factors of corporate information systems - investment management, management support, user involvement, system quality, information quality, and system use - for the purpose of seeing if Information Productivity is a practical performance indicator for the status of the management of corporate information systems.According to the study conducted, these factors for the success of corporate information systems were found ineffective on Information Productivity.In the conclusion, four reasons for the ineffectiveness of the information systems success factors were suggested. First, planning and management for corporate information systems needs to meet business strategies of corporations in order that it gives a good influence on the profits and productivity. Second, in order to find what are the factors having effects on Information productivity, the business environment and the other internal conditions of enterprises must be looked into as well as the respect of corporate information systems. Third, even though the management of corporate information systems is well maintained, it may not affect Information Productivity much because it takes time before it actually takes effect. Fourth, Information systems hardly have influences on Information Productivity for some specific industrial divisions.Therefore, the limitations cannot explain the results of Information productivity merely by the success factors of corporate information systems. Thus it does not make sense that Information Productivity is used in order to evaluate the status of the management of corporate information systems.
