- Digitalization is considered key to meeting the challenges that face the healthcare sector. However, the results of digitalization initiatives have often been disappointing and the literature has provided a fragmented understanding of the mixed results. While previous studies have generally focused on the advantages and the barriers of adopting healthcare IS, little attention has been paid to unearthing the causal powers that generate IT-enabled transformations. The purpose of this research is to identify the generative mechanisms of digitalization in the healthcare sector. Specifically, the research seeks to answer the following research questions: What are the generative mechanisms of digitalization in healthcare? How can they explain varying degrees of digital transformation? We draw on Archer's morphogenetic approach, which adopts a critical realist lens, to answer these questions. As such, one of the contributions of this paper is to demonstrate the usefulness of a Critical Realist ontology for developing insights into digitalization.

Evolving Shared Platforms: An Imbrication Lens
- 2017
-
Ingår i: Thirty Eighth International Conference on Information Systems, South Korea 2017.
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Shared platforms form a stable foundation for the integration of digital components by heterogeneous actors. These platforms are an emergent organizational form whose members seek interoperability through technological architectures constituted of a modular core, a standardized interface, and complementary extensions. Although extant IS research on such platforms primarily emphasizes the social aspects of platforms, there is a growing literature that also takes their material aspects into account. Here our objective is to contribute to this trend in sociomaterial theorizing of platforms by undertaking an imbricational analysis of a twelve-year shared platform initiative in the Swedish Road Haulage industry. Hence, we attempt to answer the following research question: “How do the participants’ coopetitive behavior and the platform’s technology architecture reciprocally shape the evolution of a shared platform?” We identify three organizational forms that are likely to emerge in the evolution of a shared platform and assess their respective implications for platform innovation.

Leveraging accounting information systems for standardization : A case study of a SOX compliance journey

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Standards, that is, a set of rules, norms or measures that establish a degree of uniformity such that idiosyncratic instances can be subjected to comparative evaluation, have long been recognized as fundamental to the production of economic efficiency. For instance, the division of labor, which underpins not only global trade but also innovation, relies on standards (Smith, 1776). Specifically, separating the production of a product into its component parts that rely on specialized labor only makes the manufacturing process more efficient if the parts can be recombined smoothly. This calls for standards to enable the frictionless articulation of divided labor.

On the value of mobile business intelligence : An affordance approach
- 2018
-
Ingår i: ECIS 2018 Proceedings : Research Papers - Research Papers.
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Mobile BI (m-BI) is an extension of BI delivered on mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets. Even though proponents of m-BI are highlighting its capabilities and outcomes, still its value-generating potential in organizations is surrounded by ambiguity. Given this uncertainty, we use an affordance approach to explore the action possibilities and benefits arising from the interaction of m-BI and users. We conduct a case study in a retail organization where m-BI has been in use for more than four years. Three affordances - cursory scanning, aligning distributed intelligence in real time and real-time performance tracking - are explored in detail based on their constitutive elements, namely, technological capabilities, user intention and key differences with its closest technological rival. Each affordance is further theorized in relation to the decision making process. The affordances primarily support the intelligence and the review phase of decision-making; the design phase is minimally supported, while the choice phase is not supported. Moreover, we note the performative nature of affordances, highlighting the behavioural expectations and practices they produced.
