The Impact of EA-Driven Dynamic Capabilities, Innovativeness, and Structure on Organizational Benefits: A Variance and fsQCA Perspective

Enterprise Architecture (EA) allows firms to create value on the firm and operational levels. This paper argues that firms’ EA-driven dynamic capabilities lead innovative value-creating actions and, ultimately, improve organizational benefits. Hence, we propose a theoretical model explains how these enable innovativeness of firms. Moreover, explain contingent role an organic structure its relation innovativeness. Data within this study is collected from 299 CIOs IT managers. uses variance-based approach complementary fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) analyze model’s hypothesized relationships. Our outcomes demonstrate positive relationship between as well innovation post-hoc analyses using fsQCA reveal various circumstances in which valuable, rare, inimitable, non-substitutional (VRIN) resources are particularly relevant for obtain high levels
