Abstract: In today’s digital world, sharing data among private sector organizations to realm mutual benefits, such as innovation and value co-creation, is considered a promising yet barely explored and realized approach. Although private sector organizations are pursuing data sharing, successful real-world examples are sparse due to a multitude of barriers. However, knowledge on barriers to data sharing among private sector organizations is scarcely existent in scientific literature. Therefore, we apply an exploratory research approach by triangulating insights from fourteen expert interviews and a systematic literature review to identify barriers which we group along five distinct perspectives. By exploring the multi-faceted barriers to data sharing among private sector organizations, our work contributes to a better understanding of data sharing in this field and lays the foundation for future studies. For practitioners, we identify key challenges to successful data sharing among private sector organizations and, hence call for additional endeavors in data sharing. Collapse

Abstract: The ever-growing amounts of data offer companies many opportunities for data-driven-value generation which, in turn, can be multiplied by leveraging data across company boundaries in evolving data ecosystems. However, while such systems increasingly emerge in B2B environments enabling systematic sharing and utilization of “industrial data”, comparable concepts in B2C ambits have not yet prevailed. Despite the rising importance of personal data in the information economy, B2C data ecosystems represent a widely unexplored research area. To remedy this gap, the study generates design principles for human centric B2C data ecosystems to aid in their development. For this purpose, a qualitative interview study with experts of interdisciplinary domains and a structured literature review are conducted both embedded into a methodology for generating design principles. On this basis, derived design principles help to understand peculiarities of data ecosystems in B2C ambits and provide solutions to overcome their obstacles identified in the empirical investigation.

Abstract: Explorative business process management (BPM) is attracting increasing interest in the literature and professional practice. Organizations have recognized that a focus on operational efficiency is no longer sufficient when disruptive forces can make the value proposition of entire processes obsolete. So far, however, research on how to create entirely new processes has remained largely conceptual, leaving it open how explorative BPM can be put into practice. Following the design science research paradigm and situational method engineering, we address this research gap by proposing a method called the Five Diamond Method. This method guides explorative BPM activities by supporting organizations in identifying opportunities from business and technology trends and integrating them into business processes with novel value propositions. The method is evaluated against literature-backed design objectives and competing artifacts, qualitative data gathered from BPM practitioners, as well as a pilot study and two real-world applications. This research provides two contributions. First, the Five Diamond Method broadens the scope of BPM by integrating prescriptive knowledge from innovation management. Second, the method supports capturing emerging opportunities arising from changing customer needs and digital technologies. Collapse

Abstract: This article presents the core value streams conducive to digital transformation (DT) in public administration, as well as related success factors critical to fostering DT, that are proposed on the basis by a four-round Delphi study with experts from European Union (EU) institutions. Core value streams are incorporated into the initial framework designed for DT in public administration and include: shaping and communication of DT offerings, designing of DT offerings and stakeholders' engagement, deployment and promotion of DT offerings, and, the improvement and innovation of DT offerings. In addition, DT transversal value streams specific to stakeholder groups were identified. The obtained results significantly contribute to the development of the scant research of the issue so far, and, constitute the foundation of the practical operationalization of DT plans aiming at successful DT in public administration organizations.

Perceived Input Control on Digital Platforms: an Empirical Investigation

Abstract: Complementary products and services of third-party complementors have become one of the cornerstones for the success and sustainability of digital platforms. Information Systems (IS) research has paid considerable attention to the effects of control modes on shaping platform governance and thus regulating complementors and their complements. However, there is still a lack of comprehension of the effects of a widely applied, yet underexamined control mode, namely input control (i.e., the set of mechanisms that screen and sort out complementors and their complements before entering the digital platform's ecosystem). We tested our hypotheses using an integrated research approach that includes quantitative data from a survey with 114 web browser extension developers and qualitative data based on semistructured interviews with 8 developers. The results demonstrate convergent findings in support of the assertion that both complementor-and complement-related perceived input control negatively impact complementors' perceived usefulness, satisfaction and continuance intentions. As such, our paper contributes to IS governance research primarily by conceptually distinguishing between complementorrelated and complement-related input control and by uncovering their distinct effects on critical complementor attitudes and behavioral intentions. Moreover, our study offers insights that can help platform providers to effectively manage their gatekeeping and screening processes. Collapse

Abstract: A steadily increasing number of organizations are adopting mobile computing devices. There is broad consensus in literature that mobile information systems (IS) and information technology (IT) use can entail positive effects in an organizational context. However, scholars have begun to assess the downsides of mobile IS/IT, including worklife conflict, spillover effects, and increases in stress. The aim of our study is to provide a balanced overview of the benefits and drawbacks of mobile IS/IT use in the form of a conceptual research model in order to ultimately assess the net productivity impact of individual mobile IS/IT use in organizations. We base our model on a deductiveinductive research approach, combining an extensive literature review and 17 interviews with mobile computing experts in major German and Swiss public corporations. We provide a statistical validation of our measurement model using survey-based data, which enables other researchers to make use of our measurement instrument. Collapse
