“…in standard management reporting) or where standardized data exchanges in a value chain are needed (e.g. electronic data interchange enable interfirm business processes), but it is extremely challenging in the world of distributed Internet‐based resources (Berners‐Lee et al , 2001; Guha et al , 2004; Lei et al , 2004). Often less ambitious solutions are aimed at like the exchange of annotations of people who share certain data, or some text and data mining to find patterns among the semantics used by suppliers and users of certain data.This discussion of use‐value indicates at least two other information service architectures:The community architecture, which does not aim at full information integration but aims at providing ways of interacting with content such that it enables community building by meta‐data processing.…”

Purpose -The purpose of this paper is to give a structured literature review, design concepts, and research propositions related to a product-oriented design theory for information services. Information services facilitate the exchange of information goods with or without transforming these goods. Exemplar information services are e-publishing, electronic communities-of-practice, and management reporting. The importance of information services in the current economy merits the development of an explicit product-and process-oriented design theory. Design/methodology/approach -This article focuses on the product-oriented design theory by applying Walls et al.'s framework. A product-oriented design theory of information services identifies relevant descriptive and explanatory insights (i.e. content, use, value, and revenue), meta-requirements, and meta-designs. The paper describes design problems for information services, and gives key requirements for information services. Next, it describes the information, organizational and information technological components of an information service, and identifies at least four information service architectures. Finally, it gives research hypotheses, research ideas, and discusses practical implications. Findings -The results form a product-oriented design theory for information services. The paper gives a structured way for practitioners to analyze information service design challenges, and suggestions are given for requirements and design decisions on three aspects (content, use feature, and revenue). Originality/value -Given the previously fragmented nature of the literature, this paper gives new opportunities for research and practice.
