Sensemaking and Sustainable Practicing: Functional Affordances of Information Systems in Green Transformations

We view sustainability transformation initiatives as a special case of large-scale IT-enabled change projects. To identify what is particular about these initiatives, we examined the literature in information systems, organizational science, and management and identified six key properties that apply to sustainability transformation initiatives. A summary of these key properties and their implications for our study is presented in Table 1 in the body of the paper.
