Abstract:

In the context of the wide-spread digitization of businesses and society at large, the logic inherent in a business model has become critical for business success and, hence, a focus for academic inquiry. The business model concept is identified as the missing link between business strategy, processes, and Information Technology (IT). The BISE community offers distinct and unique competencies that can be harnessed for significant research contributions to this field. Three distinct streams are delineated, namely, business models in IT industries, IT enabled or digital business models, and IT support for developing and managing business models.

Abstract:

Business and Information Systems Engineering (BISE) is at a turning point: The ubiquity of information technology (IT) that we experience today in all areas of life leads to a fundamental shift in the BISE landscape and demands the individual user and his or her needs to be put at the center of all investigations. The increasing linkage of human and machine makes it necessary to adjust the perspective on value-chains, processes, methods and structures in BISE. Building on three core themes, the paper at hand discusses this complex socio-technological phenomenon and introduces the new field of ‘user, use & utility research’.
