This MSc. Thesis explores the adoption process of Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems in local governmental agencies. The research uses a Design Science Research approach to explore this adoption process in the innovation adoption literature. The outcomes of this literature analysis are used to create a meaningful arrangement of determinants in a single framework. The use of this framework is demonstrated and tested through expert interviews. The results of this evaluation are used to iterate on a final framework that shows the adoption process of AI-systems in local governmental agencies.
