To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
While this context is specific to projects, it is stripped of social or functional content by the technical consultants' exclusive emphasis on the technology. Their attitude towards information technology reflects their greater involvement in process: the technology (both CASE tools and the information technology used to build application systems) is created and manipulated, and hence is not objectified. It is not perceived as a tool for getting their work done, but rather as constituting the a...rena on which their work is played out. Akin to their functional counterparts, technical consultants do not see themselves as system developers. While they do subscribe to the "consultant" image, they augment this with a constant reference to their status as technical innovators. This self-image allows them to differentiate themselves from the other team members. One technical senior analyst noted: The contribution of technical people to Beta is that we are crusaders. We find out all the neat things done in the labs and we figure out how to import these into our monolithic development environment and procedures .
