Purpose A comprehensive understanding about open innovation implementation is still lacking. In particular, a compilation of drivers and barriers for OI implementation is absent from the literature. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to identify critical success factors (CSFs) for OI implementation at the firm level. Design/methodology/approach A systematic literature review was conducted in order to identify CSFs for OI implementation in previously published literature. A total of 2,894 papers were identified, 156 of which were subjected to full independent analysis by the three authors. The following aspects were considered: research strategy, approach (empirical or theoretical) and objectives; theoretical background; methodological procedures; main results; and contributions to the literature. If the paper reported empirical research that included a description of actual OI implementation, additional aspects were analyzed: industry or sector of application; firm characteristics; success of OI implementation and OI tools and techniques reported. Findings A synthetizing framework with six thematic categories of CSFs was proposed: leadership, internal innovation capability, network and relationships, strategy, technology management, and culture. A total of 22 CSFs for OI implementation were identified within these categories. Originality/value The proposed framework is an attempt to systematically generate a comprehensive list of factors that impact OI implementation. As such, it can support the theoretical development of OI-related capabilities, and serve as basis for future research that investigates operationalization and measurement of such capabilities.

A notável expansão dos sistemas ERP gerou muitas discussões entre especialistas, pesquisadores e empresários, no intuito de encontrar uma explicação para os diversos casos de sucesso e insucesso na sua implantação. O objetivo desse estudo empírico foi identificar nas 50 maiores empresas industriais atuantes no Brasil quais os principais fatores que dificultam ou contribuem para o processo de implantação de sistemas ERP. Tratou-se de uma pesquisa aplicada e exploratória. Além do levantamento bibliográfico, elaborou-se um questionário estruturado com 29 perguntas, o qual foi respondido pelos gestores de TI (tecnologia de informação) das empresas selecionadas. Os resultados demonstraram que fatores relacionados às dificuldades funcionais do sistema, customização, adaptação aos processos de negócio e carências do ERP no apoio aos planos estratégicos globais foram alguns dos pontos considerados mais complexos. Essencialmente, outros fatores concernentes ao intenso treinamento, engajamento das principais lideranças, fatores humanos, sociais e culturais também foram referidos.
