Resourcing with data: Unpacking the process of creating data-driven value propositions
研究组织如何创造数据驱动价值主张,基于欧洲邮政企业的案例,发现该过程是涌现性的,包含数据重构和数据再利用两种资源配置行动,并受数据显性和隐性质量的影响。
This paper examines how organizations create data-driven value propositions. Data-driven value propositions define what customer value is created based on data. We study the dynamics underlying this process in a European postal-service organization. We develop a model that shows that the process of creating data-driven value propositions is emergent, consisting of iterative resourcing cycles. We find that creating data-driven value propositions involves the performance of two types of resourcing actions: data reconstructing and data repurposing. The process is shaped by two types of data qualities: apparent qualities, i.e., qualities perceived ex-ante as potentially significant for creating value propositions; and latent qualities, which raise unforeseen consequences en route. We discuss the implications of these findings for the literature on creating data-driven value propositions, for our understanding of data as a strategic resource, and for the literature on resourcing.
