• SIG ENTSYS Recognized as AIS Outstanding SIG for 2025

  2026-06-15

  We are delighted to share that the AIS Special Interest Group on Enterprise-level Information Systems (SIG ENTSYS) has been recognized as an AIS Outstanding SIG for 2025. This distinction acknowledges the exceptional contributions of AIS communities in advancing the study and practice of Information Systems. SIG ENTSYS brings together researchers, practitioners, and educators interested in enterprise-level information systems and provides an important forum for exchange, collaboration, and scholarly development in this field. As AIS Transactions on Enterprise Systems (AIS-TES) is closely associated with SIG ENTSYS, we are very pleased to share this recognition with our journal community. We warmly congratulate SIG ENTSYS and thank all members, authors, reviewers, editors, and contributors who support the continued development of the enterprise systems community.

   

  The Association for Information Systems will also announce the honored communities in an upcoming issue of the AIS InSider. Read More Read more about SIG ENTSYS Recognized as AIS Outstanding SIG for 2025

• AMCIS 2026 CFP - Architecture of Enterprise Systems: Integration and Transformation Challenges

  2025-11-23

  Enterprise systems form the core of modern organizations, yet increasing system heterogeneity, fragmented processes, and rapid digital transformation continue to challenge their evolution. As enterprise architectures grow in complexity, organizations must not only integrate new technologies but also ensure alignment across business processes, governance structures, and IT infrastructures. Our AMCIS 2026 mini-track explores Enterprise System Architecture (ESA) as the crucial connecting layer between business design and technological realization. We focus on how architectural paradigms, e.g. Event-Driven Architecture (EDA), microservices, and service-oriented patterns, shape integration capabilities, adaptability, and sustainability across distributed enterprise landscapes. Within this context, ESA also plays a critical role in enabling knowledge flow, coordinating architectural decisions, and supporting Business–IT alignment through mechanisms such as Enterprise Architecture Management (EAM). Emerging themes such as gamification approaches in alignment processes or DLT-based trust mechanisms further extend the architectural horizon of enterprise systems. This mini-track invites conceptual, empirical, and design-oriented work that examines architecture as a multi-level coordination mechanism, enabling strategic coherence, process alignment, and transformation readiness.

  This Mini-Track spans many topics below (but is not limited to):

  • Business–IT alignment in ESA
  • Adaptability and sustainability in ESA
  • Knowledge generation & distribution in ESA
  • Gamification approaches supporting ESA alignment
  • Enterprise Architecture Management (EAM) as a governance mechanism
  • Microservices migration & enterprise system modernization
  • Integration & interoperability across distributed environments
  • Evaluation of architectural coherence and adaptability
  • DLT for trusted enterprise integration

  We invite the submission of completed research papers, Emergent Research Forum (ERF) papers, Technology Research, Education, and Opinion (TREO) talk abstracts, Professional Development Symposia (PDS), workshops, and panels to the 32nd Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS) in Reno, Nevada. From August 20-22, 2026, AMCIS 2026 will bring together academics and industry professionals around the world to exchange knowledge related to diverse facets of information systems research and practice.

  Important Dates:
  January 4, 2026 - Manuscript submissions begin

  March 1, 2026 - Submissions are due at 5:00 pm PST (Reno/Los Angeles)

  May 8, 2026 - TREO, PDS, workshop, and panel submissions are due at 5:00 pm PST (Reno/Los Angeles)
