Description
Since the specific mechanisms of investing in IT to improve firm performance remain open research questions, this study, on the basis of the resource-based view (RBV) and dynamic capabilities (DV), aims to investigate the following research questions: (1) How are IS portfolios associated with SCM capabilities in improving manufacturing performance? (2) Do certain IS portfolios with any characteristics particularly fit with certain SCM capabilities? This study expects to contribute to the existing literature and practice by providing more comprehensive understanding of the linkages between IT investment, especially at the portfolio level of IS applications, and manufacturing performance, specifically in the focus of critical SCM capabilities.
