Abstract

Background: Firms recently rely on enterprise systems, such as enterprise resource planning (ERP), to integrate, automate, and support business strategy and operations. However, uncertain environments require firms continuously adapt their ERP systems to meet changing business demands in the post-implementation stage. What capability can drive ERP post-implementation adaptation (PIA) deserves further research. Based on the dynamic capabilities view, we propose that dynamic IT capabilities for ERP, namely IT sensing, IT learning, IT integration, and IT coordination capability, can drive ERP-PIA. Method: A cross-sectional and matched-pair mail survey of both business and IS executives was administrated for collecting data from the top 1,000 manufacturing firms in Taiwan. Partial least squares structural equation model (PLS-SEM) was constructed for measurement validation and hypotheses testing. Results: Based on 128 samples (74 firms), our findings demonstrate the importance of the dynamic IT capabilities for achieving higher levels of ERP-PIA. ERP-PIA can facilitate greater organizational benefits from system use. Conclusions: This study conceptualizes and empirically demonstrates the importance of ERP-PIA, which provides a specific example of IT/IS adaptation. This study also conceptualizes dynamic IT capabilities for ERP, and theorizes how these capabilities interact to enable firms to adapt ERP systems to fulfill the emergent demands. This study improvs the understanding of the roles of dynamic IT capabilities for ERP in enabling ERP-PIA and organizational benefits through a richer theoretical framing than that of prior studies.
ERP系统实施后的适应:ERP的动态IT能力
背景:企业最近依赖企业系统,如企业资源规划(ERP),来集成、自动化和支持业务战略和运营。然而,不确定的环境要求企业不断调整其ERP系统,以满足实施后阶段不断变化的业务需求。什么样的能力能够驱动ERP实施后适应(PIA)值得进一步研究。基于动态能力的观点,我们提出ERP的动态IT能力,即IT感知能力、IT学习能力、IT集成能力和IT协调能力,可以驱动ERP- pia。方法:采用横断面、配对的邮件调查方法,对台湾前1000家制造业企业的业务主管和信息系统主管进行问卷调查。建立偏最小二乘结构方程模型(PLS-SEM)进行测量验证和假设检验。结果:基于128个样本(74家公司),我们的发现证明了动态IT能力对于实现更高水平的ERP-PIA的重要性。ERP-PIA可以促进从系统使用中获得更大的组织利益。结论:本研究概念化并实证证明了ERP-PIA的重要性,它提供了一个IT/IS适应的具体例子。本研究还概念化了ERP的动态IT能力,并理论化了这些能力如何相互作用,使企业能够适应ERP系统以满足紧急需求。本研究通过比以往研究更丰富的理论框架,提高了对ERP动态IT能力在实现ERP- pia和组织效益中的作用的理解。
