Supply chains have increasingly become an opportunity for firms to access complementary competencies and learn from other firms. To better understand the role of IT-enabled learning strategies in affecting the supply chain firms’ learning outcome, we use a computational simulation approach to model the IT tools used for intraand interorganizational learning. This research-in-progress builds on ...

We propose a layered architecture for choreographies and orchestrations of web services. The proposed architecture uses the concept of process views. The distributed nature of the model and the concept of views improve the privacy of business partners but do not limit their interaction capabilities, an essential feature in B2B and interorganizational applications. Our approach enables descripti...

Dynamic inter-organizational business processes are necessary to enable the flexible creation of partnerships in areas such as e-commerce and supply-chain-management. Although many information system architectures for the support of static inter-organizational business processes exist, such architectures are still not available for supporting dynamic inter-organizational business processes. In ...

Various supplier networks consist of many different types of interorganizational relationships. The coordination and evaluation of these kinds of networks is becoming more challenging as the importance and relative power of a single supplier increases due to the centralization of purchases. The main objective of this study is to measure mutual interorganizational trust in the supplier relations...

In this paper, we investigate how interorganizational networks and interpersonal networks interact over time. We present a retrospective longitudinal case study of the network system that developed a novel aircraft material and analyze change episodes from a structurationist perspective. We identify five types of episodes in which interpersonal and interorganizational networks interact (persist...

This study extends the previous research framework—the TOE (technological, organizational, and environmental perspectives) model of technological innovation—by using a revised model—the TOIM (technological, organizational, interorganizational, and marketplace perspectives) model. The study tests additional variables, including trust (interorganizational perspective), aggregation, and service qu...

In this paper an attempt is made to widen the perspective under which interorganizational networks are generally seen. It is argued that both in the economy and in policy making, network phenomena are in fact becoming more prominent. This is linked to functional differentiation, a core process of societal modernization, which implies the existence of partly autonomous societal subsystems. Their...

The authors investigate the effect of managers' perceptions of two types of transaction-specific investments on their intention to terminate a current interorganizational relationship: (1) the specific knowledge necessary for a manufacturer's representative (rep) to carry out the selling function for a given manufacturer and (2) the specific knowledge reps acquire about their own customer accou...

An Interorganizational Business Process (IOBP) is an organized group of related activities carried out by multiple organizations to accomplish a common business goal. A consequence of this is that business process modeling and design used inside an organization have to be enhanced and extended to cope with interorganizational business relationships. Modeling business processes that span multipl...
