Resumo(s)
Digitalization and emerging technologies influence organization’s environment by making them more dynamic and unpredictable. These changes not only provide capabilities for companies to leverage their operational performance, but also bring challenges to organizations that need to assess new strategies in order to survive and sustain their competitiveness. Therefore, the benefits of Digital Ecosystem (DE) become more prominent and promise industry insights and networks that are able to complement an organization’s specific value chain. Organizations have realized that they are not able to survive on a competitive and dynamic market on their own and discovered the opportunities that partnerships can bring. Instead of developing own solutions, organizations reach out to market leaders and adopt their solutions instead. By doing this, innovative solutions and valuable industry insights can be assessed with little effort. In order to integrate the benefits of DE, the organization’s strategic Information Systems Planning needs to be re-evaluated and modified upon new artifacts based on existing research on DE capabilities. Further, considerations upon establishing agility through DE opportunities are arising as well. Nevertheless, studies reveal that only few companies are able to succeed with their digital transformation which is leading to a high quote for failures in the adoption of digital business ecosystems. Hence, the reason for the failure remains unidentified and requires research. As digital ecosystems harbor the potential of providing valuable capabilities and resources to a company, the need for an DE integration framework is emerging.
