Abstract
A large number of acquisitions of IT systems has been examined and 43 different management factors which promote success in such projects have been identified. In addition eight measures by which the degree of success of an acquisition can be assessed have also been identified. The findings are incorporated into a structured approach for managing acquisitions, which is called the Success Map
