This study examines the agile supply chain strategy (SCS) in pulp & paper firms Indonesia, impacting sustainability performance via mediator variables. Applying theory of resource-based view (RBV) and dynamic capabilities (DCV) to explore these links, several hypotheses are constructed regarding information sharing with customers (ISC), collaboration suppliers (CS), advanced manufacturing t...

One of the prevailing views is that technology-based IT assets do not have the potential for sustainable competitive advantage because they are usually not rare and can be easily acquired by competitors. However, previous RBV-based research on the competitive potential of IT has paid inadequate attention to IT applications, which are a combination of application software and (digital) informati...

Research on information technology (IT) business value posit complex relationships from either a resource based view (RBV) or transaction cost economics (TCE) viewpoint. In contrast with the rich theoretical work, empirical studies have taken a ‘black box’ approach, testing relatively simple models. In this study, we integrate the theoretical and empirical work into a unified model of IT value.

Drawing upon key insights from the resource orchestration framework as a dynamic perspective on resource-based view (RBV), we investigated value creation dynamics found in sharing economy platform firms. By performing multiple-case analyses firms operating China, identified three main mechanisms by which orchestrate their external resources (i.e., crowds of suppliers and consumers) to create ga...

The impact of ribavirin (RBV) dosage on sustained virologic response (SVR) rates remains elusive in hepatitis C virus genotype 2 (HCV-2) rapid responders receiving 16 weeks of peginterferon (Peg-IFN) plus RBV. Treatment-naïve HCV-2 patients with rapid virologic response (RVR) received Peg-IFN alfa-2a 180 μg/week plus weight-based RBV (1,000 or 1,200 mg/day; cut-off body weight: 75 kg) for 6 wee...

Recently, the Resource-based View (RBV) attracts more attention in IT business value research, as it serves as a theoretical framework for the identification of IT resources impacting firm performance. Although numerous empirical studies applying the RBV can be found, systematic research structuring the obtained knowledge is hardly available. Therefore, the authors conduct an evidence-based lit...
