摘要：Management literature is full of planning tools such as the SWOT and different portfolio analyses. Many of these tools have been either partially or fully automated to enable collaborative working, building and evaluating of scenarios among other activities of strategic management. However, a systematic and empirical evaluation of the use of the computerised planning tools cannot be performed without valid and reliable measures which apparently is lacking in literature. This paper endeavours to build and validate these measures by developing a framework from literature. The framework is operationalised and measured through questionnaires completed by 143 practising managers and MBA students from management positions in the UK. The analysis of the primary study shows a high reliability and validity of the developed instrument for measuring the use of computerised strategic planning tools. To facilitate a future comparative study between the use of computerised and non-computerised planning tools, advantage has been taken in this study to also developed measures for the use of non-computerised planning tools.
