Aims & Scope

The Journal of Resubmissions - Information & Technology (JRIT) is a peer-reviewed journal, focused on quality research addressing information, management, and communications technologies as applied to the digital worlds of business, government, and non-governmental institutions. The scope of JRIT is broad, including scholarly work that addresses emerging technologies and their convergence such as social media, mobile, analytics, cloud, blockchain, robotics, automation of knowledge work, internet of things, and digital fabrication. However, JRIT is unique from other journals of information and technology in that JRIT considers manuscripts denied publication from quality information technology journals after authors have undertaken revisions following "Revise & Resubmit (R&R)" decisions from these journals. At JRIT, we believe that articles that have received R&R from quality journals have contributions that can be enhanced to benefit the information technology literature, and therefore, need to be developed without the authors having to restart the submission process elsewhere. To this end, the JRIT family (Editors and reviewers) take on a "helping" rather than a "judge" role to enable authors to build on the positives of their manuscripts.

JRIT focuses on theoretical and empirical investigations and critical analysis of technology development, use, management, and impacts.

The JRIT scope includes topics such as strategy, change, infrastructure, human resources, sourcing, system development and implementation, IT risk, data science, communications, technology developments and futures, national policies and standards, and research approaches and methods.

The Journal publishes work designed to be read by researchers, scholars, teachers, and students in the fields of Information Systems, Management, and Information Science, as well as IT developers, consultants, software vendors, and senior business and IT executives seeking an update on current experience and future prospects concerning contemporary information and communications technologies.
