It is based on a single field study, conducted at only two points in time, around a particular change, and the implementation process was acknowledged by our respondents as still in progress. Nevertheless, we believe that the findings of this research have some interesting implications for researchers and offer new ways of thinking for practitioners. Despite the common wisdom that radical change can only be implemented rapidly, we suggest, on the contrary, that under certain conditions it may b...e implemented episodically. Based on an analysis of the implementation of CASE tools in one organization, we found that a gradual implementation pace was a useful strategy for achieving radical change in the software development process. While more research is clearly needed to examine this finding in other settings and with other technologies, we believe that this finding is insightful as it suggests that there is more than one way to accomplish radical change. We outlined a number of conditions: characteristics of the organizational context (such as a culture that 26 values continuous improvement, a strategy that invests over the long-term, an absence of crises, and sufficient slack resources), and characteristics of the technological innovation (such as divisibility) that may represent important indicators of the feasibility of a gradual implementation pace.
