Scholars and practitioners have trumpeted business intelligence (BI) capability as a game-changer due to its significant impact on firm performance. Despite these claims, the amplifying and underlying mechanisms governing the relationship between BI capability and organizational performance are still in their infancy. This research examines the nexus between BI capability, decision-making speed, comprehensiveness, and organizational performance. This study, drawing on knowledge-based theory, proposes a conceptual model to explain how BI capability influences organizational performance through decision-making speed and comprehensiveness and the moderating role of firm size. The proposed moderated-mediated model was tested using survey data from 236 respondents occupying leadership positions in various Jordanian industries. Partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was used to diagnose the proposed model. BI capability indirectly affects firm performance through decision-making speed and comprehensiveness. These mediating effects do not vary by company size. This paper contributed theoretically and practically to the BI framework considering decision-making, firm performance, and firm size. Implications for theory-building and practice are described.

Having a citizen's opinion is considered the most important method to evaluate a public institution's performance. As a contemporary theory regarding public institutions and private organizations, public value theory provides an alternative approach to evaluating organizations' performance. The current research has provided a new insight to assess the Mobile-government applications (m-gov app) by proposing a new model entitled ‘Mobile Government Public Value (MGPV)’ to measure the performance of m-gov apps in developing country settings, specifically Jordan. Depending on several theories engaged with information technology, many determinants have been selected to draw the line for evaluating MGPV in Jordan. Measuring the level of m-gov apps’ usage was estimated depending on its perceived need, awareness, perceived security, social influence and self-efficacy to gauge the weather of creating or increasing the public value of the m-gov app from a citizen's perspective. In the current research, Structural Equation Model (SEM) was selected to obtain the research objectives. The results have indicated that the m- gov apps perceived need, m- gov apps' awareness, m- gov apps perceived security, and m- gov apps social factors played an essential role in creating public value of m- gov apps through the mediation role of m- gov apps use factor. While m-gov apps' self-efficacy factor did not provide a positive effect on creating the public value of m-government apps.
