摘要
本研究是对 Bharadwaj(2000 年)研究 IT 能力对公司财务业绩影响的概念性复制。最初的研究表明,拥有卓越信息技术能力的公司将通过较高的利润率和较低的成本率实现出色的财务业绩。然而,关于信息技术能力与企业财务绩效之间的关系,出现了相互矛盾的研究结果(Chae 等人,2014 年)。此外,在过去十年中,统计分析的进步,如面板数据建模技术(这些过去的研究中没有使用),为观察随时间变化的模式提供了更强大的分析技术。因此,我们结合以往有关 IT 能力的研究(如 Bharadwaj,2000 年;Santhanam & Hartono,2003 年)中的概念基础,重新研究了 IT 能力对企业财务绩效的影响,但使用的是大型纵向数据集,并充分利用了面板数据分析的力量。我们的研究结果与 Bharadwaj(2000 年)、Santhanam 和 Hartono(2003 年)以及 Choi 和 George(2016 年)的研究结果一致,表明 IT 能力对财务绩效有显著的积极影响。我们的研究结果并不支持 Chae 等人(2014 年)的研究结果,他们发现 IT 能力与财务绩效之间没有关联。我们将讨论我们的研究结果对继续使用基于资源观的 IT 能力理论框架的影响。
Revisiting the Role and Impact of Information Technology Capability
This study is a conceptual replication of Bharadwaj (2000) investigating the impact of IT capability on a firm’s financial performance. The original study demonstrated that firms with superior IT capability will deliver superior financial performance manifested by higher profit ratios and lower cost ratios. However, conflicting findings emerged regarding the relationship between IT capability and a firm’s financial performance (Chae et al., 2014). Furthermore, in the past decade, advancements in statistical analysis, such as panel data modeling techniques that were not used in these past studies have provided more robust analytical techniques to observe patterns over time. Hence, incorporating the conceptual foundations as in prior studies on IT capability (e.g., Bharadwaj, 2000; Santhanam & Hartono, 2003), we re-investigate the impact of IT capability on a firm’s financial performance but do so by using a large longitudinal dataset and leveraging the power of panel data analysis. Our findings are consistent with the results of Bharadwaj (2000), Santhanam and Hartono (2003), and Choi and George (2016), suggesting that IT capability has a significant positive impact on financial performance. Our results do not support the findings of Chae et al. (2014), who found no association between IT capability and financial performance. We discuss the implications of our findings for the continued use of the theoretical framework of IT capability derived from the resource-based view.
