Information systems absorptive capacity for environmentally driven IS‐enabled transformation

Vanessa Cooper, Alemayehu Molla · 2016 · Information Systems Journal

Summary. Organizations can leverage information systems to address environmental sustainability by developing IS-environmental absorptive capacity—the ability to recognize, assimilate, and apply environmental knowledge through IS. The study identifies that sustainable IS triggers, knowledge exposure, and prior experience build this capacity, which then drives environmentally sustainable IS adoption and improves cost savings, operational performance, and organizational reputation. Survey and case study evidence confirm the model.
