E-BUSINESS, WHAT IS IT GOOD FOR: AN EXPLANATORY STUDY OF FIVE COMPANIES’ E-BUSINESS SOLUTIONS

Gennow, Gustav and Eborn, Jacob (2005)
Department of Business Administration
Abstract
The notion of firms interacting with technology is not new; these types of systems were already in place in the mid eighties. E-business users worked with connections between their inbound logistics and procurement systems, and suppliers’ order-entry systems. When these connections were described for the first time the vertical links between two, or more, value chains in a value system received more attention in firm strategy. The design of the linkages in the value system was said to be a product of the need for coordination and relative bargaining power. Moreover the technology is interdependent, meaning that the compatibility of communicating information systems is important to investigate (Porter 1985).
