This project investigates IS architecture from two distinctive, but interrelated perspectives. While the first part of the project employs a static approach to explain which institutional factors underlie desirable outcomes for IS architecture, the second part opts for a dynamic approach to explain how IS architecture evolves over time. This project combines both static and dynamic explanations to triangulate the generated theories on IS architecture.

Architectural thinking aims at supporting non-architects and people outside the IT function to adopt holistic, long-term considerations in their daily decisions. To establish architectural thinking we build small interventions such as labels for applications, domains or projects to increase the awareness of employees for architectural goals and provide opportunities to contribute to the goal achievement.

Many organizations struggle with creating and maintaining data quality in their everyday business. Beyond formal means of control, such as data governance frameworks comprising rules, regulations or regular data quality reviews, in this project we explore lightweight interventions that nudge people in the organization to spend a little more effort here and there, which overall measurable increases the understanding for data quality and data quality itself.
