Based on a critical analysis of the literature on the development and adoption of interorganisationalinformation systems (IOIS) we propose a new unit of analysis for IOISstudies, define levels of analysis based on this unit in order to organize a large set ofvariables pertinent to the study of...

We argue that certain theoretical commitments that underpin much existing Inter-organisational Information Systems (IOIS) research at small scales become untenable when IOIS are studied at the scale of whole industries and over time periods greater than individual implementation projects. We...

Observing that existing models of inter-organisational information systems (IOIS) have not been developedto explain IOIS variance, in this paper the authors develop three criteria a new theoretical framework shouldmeet: 1) It should support identification of and distinction between essential...

We analyse an empirical case study of an inter-organizational information system (IOIS) in theAustralian pharmaceutical distribution industry, using a theoretical data coding approach, toprovide a concise grounded account of changes in the material, normative and ideationalstructures within the...
