Minitrack: Enterprise Ecosystems: The Integrated Enterprise,
Levels of Information Systems Research (Process, Enterprise-,
Ecosystem- & Industry-Level)
57th Hawaii International
Conference on System Sciences (HICSS-57) 3 - 6. Januar 2024.
Waikiki, Hawaii, USA
Organizational Systems and Technology (OST)
Mini-Track Description:
The changing needs of corporate strategy and business forces, mean
that corporate systems must continuously and quickly evolve. Yet,
Enterprise Information Systems (EIS) enterprise-level IS (ES) is
investigated less frequently than the investigation of individual
and team/workgroup level IS design and use. Enterprise IS has many
levels, processes, interfaces and interactions so they may be
studied on different levels. Complexity and boundary spanning are
inherent in Enterprise systems which may require analysis at from
different points of view and from multiple perspectives.
While integration is often sought. Slightly different but related
are the industry-level perspective and the ecosystem perspective.
The synergies between ES studies and these related fields have
been under-researched as they are traditionally have been treated
separately. ES (such as ERP, CRM and the like) have long played an
important role as operational backbone of most organizations. With
the increasing complexity of today’s business relationships, the
management of backstage integration as well as a flexible way of
decoupling between backstage and frontstage ES are gaining
importance. The challenge to integrate technological innovations
and adapt business processes within the organization and between
organizations continues. Extending and enhancing an EIS with new
innovations and interface brings many challenges on an
enterprise-level and inter-organizational ecosystem-level. The
integration of business processes and systems within and between
companies remains complicated and difficult. The challenge for
organizations includes both internal and external integration
challenges, but also must explore the establishment of new IT
infrastructure business models.
This mini-track seeks to explore current issues surrounding the
evolution of the integrated IS both from an academic and
practitioner perspective. We welcome all themes related to
internal and external integration of information systems. This
mini-track spans many topics below (but is not limited to):
• strategic initiatives and impacts
• implementation, operations, cost management
• data governance and management with and across enterprises
• productivity and impact on corporate profitability
• Administration, internal controls, and assurance issues
• social effects, change management, human interfaces and change
management • business processes, project and process management
• inter-organizational, supply chain logistics
• integrating emerging technologies into the core of enterprise
information systems
• architectures, cloud and platform-approaches of EIS
• risk assessment and management, cybersecurity and threats to the
ecosystem
The mini-track will constitute a forum for the following topics on
an enterprise-level, ecosystem-level and industry-level:
• Design and management of enterprise-wide Systems (e.g., emergent
technologies and innovations, telemetry devices, IoT, Robotic
Process Automation (RPA), Business Process Mining, User Behavior
Mining)
• Industry-specific design and adoption of enterprise-wide systems
• Reference models for enterprise-wide systems and processes
• Approaches for enterprise application integration
• Enterprise architecture management
• Enterprise-wide and cross-enterprise coordination (e.g., design
principles, data standards, governance in digital platform-based
business networks)
• Interoperability of enterprise-wide systems within the firm and
along the supply-chain
• The role of enterprise-wide systems to support decisions
(data-driven decisions)
• Decision support for managerial decision-making on
enterprise-wide systems (e.g., cloud vs. on-premise vs. hybrid,
costs and benefits of ERP/Cloud/ SOA installations, total cost of
ownership (TCO) or true cost of ERP, cloud hosted and extended ERP
operations, switching vendors or moving to cloud-based ERP)
• Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in Enterprise-wide
systems (sales, procurement, logistics, financial accounting,
master data management)
• Enterprise-wide Systems as digital platforms: Openness of
systems, new level of modularity of enterprise-wide systems
• Processes and workflows in enterprise-wide systems (workflow
management systems as part of enterprise-wide systems, Business
Process Modeling (BPM) and process management innovation in the
enterprise ecosystem)
• Data management on enterprise-level (information logistics
management, corporate data management, data current and emerging
data management infrastructures, data platforms)
• Emerging business models for the enterprise as enabled by
technology (e.g., platform business models)
All research methods welcomed: Submissions may include, but are
not limited to research papers (conceptual, theoretical, and
empirical studies), as well as case studies, and best practices
with actionable managerial guidance. Both explanatory/descriptive
and design research studies are invited.
