Abstract
ABSTRACT Through a case study in the offshore oil and gas sector, we provide evidence from client, vendor, and governance systems actors on how divergent logics between clients and vendors give rise to a logics boundary that reduces the client’s propensity to outsource digital innovation. However, we found that different types of governance systems can institute boundary spanning activities to address the key logics’ dimensions that can attenuate or amplify the logics barrier.
