Factors Influencing Benefits of Inter-Organisational Systems (IOS) Adoption

چکیده
The adoption of inter-organisational system (IOS) has become important for many organisations because of its many benefits, which can be categorised into operational, managerial and strategic benefits. While some organisations have gained many benefits, some have experienced very limited benefits from IOS adoption. Existing studies have identified a number of factors affecting the achievement of IOS benefits. This is a research-in-progress study that is aimed at assessing the relevance of factors identified from the literature in explaining the benefits obtained by Australian organizations from IOS adoption, using four case studies conducted with two pharmaceutical and two grocery manufacturing companies.
