Paper Abstract:
|
This short paper presents an in-progress research work aimed at establishing a theoretical lens for describing,
understanding and explaining the period from going live with an enterprise system and until this system is stabilized and
normal organizational performance is achieved - this period is metaphorically labeled the maiden voyage. The paper
presents a short overview of institutional theory, and proposes methodologically guidelines for investigating the maiden
voyage by institutional theory. |
