Abstract

This article discusses zero-based budgeting (ZBB), and the implications of ZBB as an alternative to chargeout systems. This is followed by a presentation of the findings of a two-year field test designed to assess the effectiveness of ZBB as a planning and control technique for allocating MIS resources.
