Data-related tensions in digital servitization ecosystems: A systematic literature review
本文通过系统性文献综述,识别了数字服务化生态系统中企业间协作引发的11种数据相关紧张关系,并提出了7种应对策略,为管理者和政策制定者提供了数据治理建议。
This article investigates data-related tensions and their corresponding coping strategies arising from inter-firm collaboration in digital servitization ecosystems. We conducted a systematic literature review based on thematic and network analyses, covering a sample of 191 articles on digital servitization. The findings offer a set of 11 tensions organized into six dimensions: (i) data strategy, (ii) data partnership governance, (iii) data reliability, (iv) data security and privacy, (v) data interoperability , and (vi) data lifecycle . Additionally, we identify seven coping strategies to address these tensions, which we categorized into three approaches: (i) governance, (ii) technology, and (iii) organization. These tensions and their corresponding coping strategies are arranged and presented in a conceptual framework, leading into five propositions. We also provide a research agenda outlining future research opportunities to expand knowledge on the tensions arising from inter-organizational relationships when creating and providing data-driven services. For practitioners, we offer insights into how to manage ecosystem relationships by suggesting strategies to cope with these tensions, and for policy makers we shed light on crucial matters for future data governance policies and laws.
