A framework of strategy position map is presented to locate, set and move company’s strategy position based on IT adoption and corporate focus. Case studies on the firms from different parts in the supply chain for various industrial sectors demonstrate the applications of the proposed framework. The paper provides a discussion on the issues of observations, guidelines, components selection, and implications.
