مستخلص: How many people does an organization need to fulfil the role of business information management? Many organizations struggle with this question. The aim of this paper is to determine the factors that influence the size of business information management. Business information management is intended to bridge the gap between business and IT. The business function and the IT department (or external IT services provider) have their specific roles and responsibilities and seem to have difficulty in communicating and understanding each other. To manage this, IT governance is an integral part of the total corporate governance to optimize the use of IS/IT within organizations. Realizing the business information management department depends on a large number of situational factors. Based on literature research 20 factors were found which are important for the sourcing of the business information management department. It was found out that these factors were part of three dimensions: the complexity of the information systems landscape, the complexity of the user organization, and the complexity of the business information management department. A survey was conducted among five universities of applied sciences. Of each university, the twelve business domains were questioned about these three dimensions and the sourcing of twenty five roles within business information management. Correlation analysis show that the number of users, the costs of licenses and support, and the number of calls have a significant relation with the number of business information managers. The results support the relevance of the three defined dimensions and provide opportunities for the development of a sourcing model for business information management. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
