“…This was found to be of decisive importance as the business model is at the frontier of information systems enabling digital business and the related management aspects. It often correlates with superior firm performance (Williamson 2010; Koo et al 2007) and thus can be considered as source of viable business practice (Lin et al 2012;Oestreicher-Singer and Zalmanson 2013). As a consequence, in addition to the development of the digital business itself, there has likewise been a particularly strong emphasis on business model design and innovation for digital businesses, which led to a fast-paced and ever-changing business environment (Shaw 2000a(Shaw , 2000b.…”

The ongoing integration of Information Technology (IT) into various areas of our lives has led to a plethora of digital products and services. To survive competition in the long run, these offerings not only have to keep up with constant technological developments, but also have to adapt from a business point of view. Managers of these digital businesses have to especially focus on the design and evolution of their business' revenue mechanisms to ensure the viability of their offerings. The related decisions are not trivial, as managers have to be aware of the relevant contextual factors and have to react quickly to changes in the environment. This paper proposes a viability theory for digital businesses described by 17 propositions that may guide managers in the design of revenue mechanisms and thereby support the evolution as well as the viability of a digital business.

This article aims to examine the influence of the strategic background and of the business model elements on its value proposition, and to investigate the relationship between the value proposition and the performance of e-business. The research is supported theoretically by the Technological, Organizational and Environmental framework (TOE), derived from the Diffusion of Innovation Theory (DIT), for the Strategic Background (IFINEDO, 2011), by the Business Model theory (OSTERWALDER; PIGNEUR; 2010; SOUZA; BATISTA, 2014) and by the business performance literature (RAMANUJAN; VENKATRAMAN, 1987). We tested the proposed model with a sample of 252 observations, using the structural equation modeling. The main results indicate a partial influence of the strategic background in the value proposition through the constructs management positioning, organizational readiness, relative advantage and pressure from stakeholders. Relating to the business model, the constructs of market segmentation, customer relationships, capabilities, partnerships and revenue model influence the value proposition, which in turn affects positively the performance of e-business companies.

Lin (2008) examined the impacts of innovation characteristics and organizational learning capabilities on e-business implementation success.…”

The main purpose of this study is to examine the effects of knowledge integration and task-technology fit on the implementation of e-business applications. Data were collected by a questionnaire survey sent to 1000 large service enterprises in Taiwan. Of the 1000 questionnaires distributed, 239 were returned, for a response rate of 23.9%. However, 44 respondents indicated that they did not implement any e-business applications in their organizations, and thus 195 completed usable questionnaires were used to perform the statistical analysis. The survey results indicate that knowledge integration and task-technology fit influence the implementation process of e-business applications. Likewise, the implementation process of e-business applications influences the implementation effectiveness of e-business applications. As such, the implications of the findings for IT practice are discussed. Moreover, this study will provide a valuable reference for business and IT managers who are implementing e-business applications in the network era, and for researchers interested in the development of e-business applications.
