Dear colleagues,
Please consider submitting a paper and visiting Grenoble, France
on 08th – 9th June 2020 to participate in
The 6th International Workshop on Socio-Technical Perspective in
IS development (STPIS'20)
Submission is open for the first call with a submission deadline
of 01 April 2020
The main purpose of the workshop is to arrange discussions on
using a socio-technical perspective in organizational systems
development, the long-term goal being to make this workshop a
meeting place for the community of researchers and practitioners
interested in the socio-technical approach.
Following the purpose, only part of the workshop is devoted to
presentations, the rest is designated for collaborative work. This
year we will again follow the practice established during STPIS'17
and will be working on a real case from the local industry.
Please refer to our website for further information:

STPIS is attached to the CAiSE’20 conference:

A brief description is presented below
Despite that a socio-technical perspective has been around for
over a half century, it is often forgotten in the Information
Systems (IS) discourse today. Consequently, many “new approaches”
appear to reflect on IS systems problems, such as modern IT
systems being poorly adjusted to the external or/and internal
environment (e.g. market, organizational culture) of organizations
in which they are (to be) deployed. We strongly believe that it is
high time the social-technical perspective took its rightful place
in IS research, practice and teaching.
The main purpose of the workshop is to arrange discussions on
using a socio-technical perspective in IS development, the
long-term goal being to make this workshop a meeting place for the
community of IS researchers and practitioners interested in the
socio-technical approach.
