Book Inter organizational Information Systems in the Internet Age

Download or read book Inter organizational Information Systems in the Internet Age written by Sean B. Eom and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the U.S. Department of Defense initiated the development of networked computers in 1969, Internet technologies have rapidly advanced and revolutionized the way we communicate and conduct business. The second wave of the technological revolution came with intranet technology in the mid-1990s. With the intranet, organizations have strengthened the powers and speed of data gathering and sharing, communication, collaboration, and decision making within a firewall-protected organizational boundary. The third wave of this technological evolution, extranets, began in the second half of the 1990s. Many believe that it is the key technology enabler that is triggering a revolution in the structure and operations of many organizations in the new Internet-driven global economy. In addition to maturing Internet technologies, several technology drivers, as well as business drivers, further pushed the emergence of new types of organizations--virtual corporations, virtual organizations, extended enterprises, and trans-enterprise systems.

Book Adoption  Value Co Creation  and Governance of Inter Organizational Information Technology in Wood Networks

Download or read book Adoption Value Co Creation and Governance of Inter Organizational Information Technology in Wood Networks written by Simon Thanh-Nam Trang and published by Cuvillier Verlag. This book was released on 2015-06-22 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ecological usage of wood as a carbon store, a substitute for fossil-intensive materials, and a direct alternative for fossil fuels has garnered tremendous attention. A variety of public and private activities therefore aim to increase the efficient usage of wood in networks. Because inter-organizational IT can play an important role in the efficient utilization of wood, the overall goal of this dissertation thesis is to provide practitioners, policy makers, and researchers with deep insights into how to effectively promote and use inter-organizational IT in the wood industry. This cumulative dissertation is the results of a research project at the DFG Resource Training Group 1703 “Resource Efficiency in Interorganizational Networks” and the Chair of Information Management at the University of Göttingen. It presents eight studies in the fields of adoption, value co-creation, and governance of inter-organizational IT, encompassing a rich data set of 19 interviews and 833 questionnaires. The theoretical and practical insights gained from the data analysis enable policy makers to effectively promote inter-organizational IT for the wood industry and allow practitioners in wood networks to effectively design their IT usage, IT processes, and IT governance. Researchers find a variety of new avenues for studying the phenomena of IT non-adoption under consideration of industry specifics, IT-based value co-creation through the lens of inter-organizational IT alignment, and distinct modes of effective IT network governance.

Book Adopting Information Systems Perspectives from Small Organizations

Download or read book Adopting Information Systems Perspectives from Small Organizations written by Özgün Imre and published by Linköping University Electronic Press. This book was released on 2017-12-08 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do organizations adopt information systems? Is it just because of financial reasons, of concerns for efficiency? Or is it due to external pressures, such as competitor pressure, that an organization adopts an information system? And, how does the adoption take place? Is it a linear process, or is the process one of conflicts? Does a specific person govern this process, or do we have multiple parties involved? What happens if these conflicts occur among those involved? How does the organization move on and achieve a successful information system adoption? By investigating two organizations, one international academic journal and one South American manufacturing company, this thesis aims to investigate the whys and hows of information system adoption, and aims to contribute to the discourse on information system adoptions in small organizations – an often underrepresented segment in information system adoption literature. By adopting different theoretical lenses throughout the five research papers included, this body of work suggests that even when seemingly simple, information system adoptions can become rather complex. The cases reveal that the role of information systems and issues related to information system adoptions are often not well thought-out in the early days of the organization. The actors’ understandings of adoption and consequences mature and the information systems become more intertwined. Common use of stakeholder theory introduces general stakeholders and their interaction with the focal organization. The cases reveal that the adoption process involves multiple actors, even within what would initially appear as a stakeholder, and that those actors can be in conflict with each other. These conflicts often lead to negotiations, and the cases reveal that these negotiations are opportunities of learning; the actors engage with the information system and with each other, gaining new knowledge about the issues at hand. The dissertation argues that there are various social worlds in information system adoptions, and various factors – ranging from organizational structure to social norms – that often affect why and how the organization undergoes an adoption process. The multiple power relations and divergent interests of stakeholders in these adoption processes, and how information systems affect other parts of the organization, reinforce the need for a well thought-out, flexible and reflexive approach to information system adoptions.
