“…Gustavsson and Jonsson (2008) explored the positive impact of IT usage within the organisation on information quality. The major mission of BA systems is to enable managers to make better decisions by preparing timely, relevant, and easy-to-use information (Elbashir, Collier, & Davern, 2008;Lismont, Vanthienen, Baesens, & Lemahieu, 2017;Rouhani et al, 2016), and Popovič, Hackney, Coelho, and Jaklič, (2014), who investigated the relationship between BI systems maturity and its impact on information quality, clearly showed that these systems enhance information quality. Therefore, we propose:…”

Many companies invest considerable resources in developing Business Analytics (BA) capabilities to improve their performance. BA can affect performance in many different ways. This paper analyses how BA capabilities affect firms' agility through information quality and innovative capability. Furthermore, it studies the moderating role of environmental turbulence, both technological and in the market. The proposed model was tested using statistical data from 154 firms with two respondents (CEO and CIO) from each firm. The data were analysed using Partial Least Squares (PLS)/Structured Equation Modelling (SEM). Our results indicate that BA capabilities strongly impact a firm's agility through an increase in information quality and innovative capability. We also discuss that both market and technological turbulence moderate the influence of firms' agility on firms' performance. 1. Introduction Business analytics (BA) are overhauling the way firms are generating and using data (Ramanathan, Philpott, Duan, & Cao, 2017). They attracted increasing attention from both academics and practitioners for their high operational and strategic potential across various industries, including financial services, insurance, retail, healthcare and manufacturing (Dubey, Gunasekaran, Childe, Wamba, & Papadopoulos, 2016; Fosso Wamba, Ngai, Riggins, & Akter, 2017). BA can be defined as a holistic approach to manage, process and analyse data, not only to create actionable insights (adapted from Fosso Wamba, Akter, Edwards, Chopin, and Gnanzou, (2015)) but also to enable organisations to predict changes based on market requirements and respond to them quickly (Işık, Jones, & Sidorova, 2013). BA systems involve the use of capabilities and technologies to collect, transform, analyse and interpret data to support decision-making (Santiago Rivera & Shanks, 2015). BA are known as 'competitive differentiators (Jeble et al., 2018),' and both professional press and academic research consistently demonstrate a positive relationship between BA and or

“…Other authors mention that organizational culture is a dimension that influences change management, often a consequence of IS implementation (Pillay, Hackney, & Braganza, 2012). Information sharing values, which are related to social conditions of voluntary knowledge sharing, were also studied as a critical factor to enhance business intelligence systems' success (Popovič, Hackney, Coelho, & Jaklič, 2014). Larsen (2003) studied IS success antecedents (ISSA) resulting from a meta-study of approximately 5000 articles from top IS journals.…”

E-learning systems are enablers in the learning process, strengthening their importance as part of the educational strategy. Understanding the determinants of e-learning success is crucial for defining instructional strategies. Several authors have studied e-learning implementation and adoption, and various studies have addressed e-learning success from different perspectives. However, none of these studies have verified whether students' cultural characteristics, such as individualism versus collectivism (individualism/collectivism), play a determinant role in the perceived e-learning success. This study provides a deeper understanding of the impact of students' cultural characteristics, for individualism/collectivism, on the perceived outcomes of e-learning systems use. This study proposes an e-learning systems success model that includes a cultural construct, individualism/collectivism. This paper reports an empirical study developed through an electronic survey distributed to higher education students belonging to various learning levels and from various universities. The study applies quantitative methods to obtain results. Our findings demonstrate that learners' perceived individual impact is positively influenced by their satisfaction and e-learning systems' use.Results demonstrate the determinant role of individualism/collectivism on individual and organizational impacts. Students influenced by collective culture perceive more individual and organizational impacts than individualistic culture students. Individualism/collectivism also moderates the users' perceived satisfaction on individual impact, and from individual impacts to organiza-tional impacts. The result shows that for the students with a stronger individualistic culture, satisfaction plays a central role in the way they assess the individual impacts, and individual impacts on organizational impacts. This empirical research discusses the theoretical and practical implications.

“…The potential of information systems (IS) to inform decision making and improve firm performance has long been emphasized in the information technology (IT) business value literature (Davern and Kauffman, 2000, Mithas et al, 2011, Melville et al, 2004, Bhattacharya et al, 2010. In firm performance studies, IS have been reported to support timely decisions, provide insights that increase comparative advantage, promote innovation, and offer a means to manage environmental uncertainty (Popovič et al, 2014). Consequently, firms rely on their IS for the provision of high quality information, i.e.…”

Big Data Analytics (BDA) is an emerging phenomenon with the reported potential to transform how firms manage and enhance high value businesses performance. The purpose of our study is to investigate the impact of BDA on operations management in the manufacturing sector, which is an acknowledged infrequently researched context. Using an interpretive qualitative approach, this empirical study leverages a comparative case study of three manufacturing companies with varying levels of BDA usage (experimental, moderate and heavy). The information technology (IT) business value literature and a resource based view informed the development of our research propositions and the conceptual framework that illuminated the relationships between BDA capability and organizational readiness and design. Our findings indicate that BDA capability (in terms of data sourcing, access, integration, and delivery, analytical capabilities, and people's expertise) along with organizational readiness and design factors (such as BDA strategy, top management support, financial resources, and employee engagement) facilitated better utilization of BDA in manufacturing decision making, and thus enhanced high value business performance. Our results also highlight important managerial implications related to the impact of BDA on empowerment of employees, and how BDA can be integrated into organizations to augment rather than replace management capabilities. Our research will be of benefit to academics and practitioners in further aiding our understanding of BDA utilization in transforming operations and production management. It adds to the body of limited empirically based knowledge by highlighting the real business value resulting from applying BDA in manufacturing firms and thus encouraging beneficial economic societal changes.
