“…Organisations facing global competition have both the opportunity and the increasing demand to offer and consume business services from other partners and integrate them into their own processes (Yao et al, 2011). Especially small and medium enterprises (SMEs) have an increasing pressure to establish inexpensive, flexible and short-term cooperation to stay competitive (Iskanius and Kilpala, 2006;Eikebrokk and Olsen, 2007;Harland et al, 2007). As a consequence cloud-based software solutions gained momentum (Dillon et al, 2010;Sun et al, 2008).…”

Abstract:Cloud computing has become a commonly accepted outsourcing business model in the last couple of years. Additionally, organisations are also becoming more aware of the necessity to adopt 'green' technologies. This article highlights synergistic effects between cloud computing solutions and green IT. After a general introduction, a case study in the field of e-invoicing serves as testimonial for a discussion on aspects concerning the economic value and on potentials regarding energy efficiency. Results from this case indicate that both costs and carbon dioxide emissions can be reduced by more than a half by using an integrated cloud computing solution with still potential remaining when integrating business processes and services on the cross-organisational level.

“…ICT requirements analysis for enterprise networks are extensively discussed by Afsarmanesh and Thamburaj (2012), where they proposed the common ICT platform and the tools to enhance the functionality effectiveness for coworking and co-innovation among the collaborative stakeholders. A case study has been presented by Iskanius and Kilpala (2006) to demonstrate the ICT implementation to build up the real-life digital business network consisting of a number of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) operating in co-operation with one focal company.…”

“…Process integration is a key component of logistics operations and is enhanced by appropriate use of IT (Narasimhan and Kim 2001;Iskanius and Kilpala 2006). Indeed, research suggests that integration of IT and supply chain initiatives can enhance agility and increase organisational performance (Vickery et al 2010).…”

Organisations use a variety of information technologies to support their logistics operations. Logistics enterprise architecture (LogEA) in an integrative framework that aligns information systems and logistics processes to better position organisations to achieve their logistics objectives. However, having a welldrafted LogEA on record is of little benefit to any organisation if the tenets set forth by the LogEA are not embodied by the organisation. In this study, we take a diffusion of innovation approach to identifying and examining factors that facilitate LogEA incorporation, which is the end-state of the organisational innovation diffusion process. We find that activities aimed towards providing regulatory guidance and emphasising depth, diversity, and breadth of use are the most salient means by which to bridge the gap between adoption and incorporation. Based on the results of a quantitative study and additional qualitative support, we present implications of our findings for research and practice.
