Research Abstract |
Information and communication technology (ICT) is used in every value chain activity, including upstream procurement, internal production, downstream sales, and customer services. However, the theoretical and practical contributions of ICT to businesses have not yet been clarified. This study clarified the roles of ICT in the context of a service-oriented approach under a business-to-business setting. The study indicated that ICT can be regarded as an enabler that has indirect rather than direct effects on firms' activities. Specifically, the research identified three roles of ICT as an enabler in terms of offering superior value to customers: (1) an enabler that integrates value offering processes with internal and external actors, (2) an enabler that collaborates with customers and suppliers,(3) an enabler that processes information intensively. These three roles enable to develop business processes more effectively and to innovates business systems.
