Internet computing as a disruptive information technology innovation: the role of strong order effects1

Jessica Luo Carlo, Kalle Lyytinen, Gregory M. Rose · 2010 · Information Systems Journal

Summary. A survey of 121 software firms reveals how companies adopt internet computing innovations in a specific sequence: base innovations first, then service innovations, then process innovations. The study shows that the amount and radicalness of base innovations directly drive service innovations, which then influence process innovations. Software organizations should recognize that radical innovations are interconnected and adopt flexible strategies that account for these dependencies.
