Many thanks to AoIR colleagues who responded to my request last week for help with a survey related to IT purchasing.  However, my fellow researchers and I still need some more responses to this survey.  

If you have any role in IT purchasing at your organization, would you please complete the survey.  And/or it would be helpful if you would encourage others in your organization who are responsible of IT purchasing to complete the survey.

Have any other AoIR folks tried to survey a similar group?  If so, can you suggest lists that we might use for recruitment?

Many thanks.

Details on the survey (including link to the online questionnaire) are below.

Subject: [Air-L] Your Help with a Survey

AoIR colleagues,

I am participating with an international group of scholars who are
exploring issues related to IT purchasing.  If you have ANY role in
purchasing IT products for your organization would you please complete
the survey for us?  Also, if you know of others in your organization (or
other organizations) who purchases IT products/services PLEASE forward
this survey request to them.

Thank you in advance for your help.

*****

Please take 20-30 minutes of your valuable time to participate in our
questionnaire survey.  Your participation will help researchers better
understand the adoption and diffusion of information technologies and
the processes and relationships in IT purchasing. You will benefit from
shared information on the findings if you fill in your contact
information at the end of the study. Business leaders in general will
benefit from your insights through published reports and articles. 

The study is not funded by any commercial interests nor will the
findings be sold for any commercial gain.  All data will be analyzed at
the aggregate level.  Neither you nor your organization will be
identified at any stage of the study.

To participate, please go to:  http://www.cci.utk.edu/fitpro and type
FITPRO to enter.

Thank you,
