The purpose of this descriptive quantitative study was to determine the significance of the association between information technological capabilities (ITC) and perceived firm performance in Fortune 1000 firms. Although ITC and its impact on firm performance are well documented in business and academia, research inconsistencies remain regarding the association between these variables over time. The goal of previous research was to identify whether measures remain consistent in showing an association among the variables. When attempting to improve firm performance by implementing strategies that increase the bottom line within budgetary constraints, firm leaders face increasing scrutiny. Therefore, it is important for managers to base their decisions on consistent measures that show a significant impact over time. Implementation of ITC is a type of strategy firm leaders use to increase firm performance. ITC requires high expenditures that impact the financial budget of the firm. As a result, an increased need exists to demonstrate that high ITC expenditures are justified as part of a firm's strategy to increase its performance. The following questions were presented in this research study: RQ1: To what extent is IT management capability significantly associated with perceived financial performance in Fortune 1000 firms? RQ2: To what extent is IT infrastructure flexibility significantly associated with perceived financial performance in Fortune 1000 firms? RQ3: To what extent is IT personnel expertise significantly associated with perceived financial performance in Fortune 1000 firms? To answer the questions, the research data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson's product-moment correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis. The study population consisted of chief information officers (CIO), vice presidents of information technology (IT), and IT managers in Fortune 1000 firms. A 7-point Likert scale survey of 92 top leaders in Fortune 1000 firms was conducted to ascertain the presence of any association between ITC and perceived firm performance. The theoretical perspective used to guide the study was the resource-based view (RBV) of the firm. Regression analysis produced evidence that the ITC variables (IT infrastructure flexibility, IT management capability, and IT personnel expertise) were statistically significant and accounted for 21.5% of the variance in overall perceived firm performance. The results of this study demonstrated that IT infrastructure flexibility, IT management capability, and IT personnel expertise are useful predictors of perceived firm performance. Future research should focus on previously studied variables that demonstrated an association between ITC and firm performance to promote more consistent measures that may serve as a source of reference to firm leaders in IT strategy decision making.
