Track: Strategic and Competitive Use of Information Technology

Mini-track: Impact of IT Productivity on Firm Value



Description of Min-track:



Broadly speaking, IT productivity refers to IT’s tangible or intangible
contribution to output. In comparison, firm value is defined as value
created for the firms, such as better financial performance, improved
product quality, or customer satisfaction. Although IT productivity and
firm value are closely related, IT productivity does not automatically
translate into firm value since their drivers are different and they
require different theoretical perspectives. This proposed mini-track
invites research on IT productivity and its contribution to firm value at
both micro and macro levels. We welcome various research methodologies,
including empirical, modelling, case study, conceptual, or simulation.
Issues of interest include but are not limited to:



   - Critical input factors for productivity such as IT investment, human
   labor, and organizational practice
   - Configuration, substitutability, and complementarity of IT input with
   other input factors in affecting productivity
   - Comparative IT productivity analysis at different levels such as
   individual, firm, industry, and country
   - Longitudinal analysis of IT productivity
   - Direct and indirect IT productivity
   - Impact of different types of IT input on productivity, such as
   hardware, software, and communication technologies
   - Strategies to improve IT productivity
   - Innovative methods/metrics in estimating IT productivity
   - Mechanisms through which IT productivity contributes to firm value
   - Various moderating and mediating factors on the relationship between
   IT productivity and firm value
   - Other fundamental issues related to IT productivity and how it affects
   firm value
