    How Do Market Standards Inhibit the Enactment of Digital Capabilities?
    (Business & Information Systems Engineering: Vol. 62, No. 4, 2020) Füstenau, Daniel; Cleophas, Catherine; Kliewer, Natalia
    Digital capabilities can improve organizations' performance by supporting complex decision-making processes. However, when market standards constrain their enactment, the potential benefits promised by digital capabilities do not realize. The paper explores this tension by means of the critical case of a European airline, which had difficulty to enact a novel pricing approach and finds that market standards are entrenched in the airline's pricing and distribution ecosystem. This causes the organization to focus on local improvements and IT-based workarounds instead of enacting a dramatically new and potentially improved digital pricing capability.

    Pathways to Developing Digital Capabilities within Entrepreneurial Initiatives in Pre-Digital Organizations
    (Business & Information Systems Engineering: Vol. 64, No. 1, 2022) Keller, Robert; Ollig, Philipp; Rövekamp, Patrick
    To enable new digital business models, pre-digital organizations launch entrepreneurial initiatives. However, in developing the required digital capabilities, pre-digital organizations often face challenges as they are marked by the ways they have historically established their organizational identity. Research on how pre-digital organizations can develop digital capabilities remains scarce. This study draws on a single case study to illustrate potential pathways for the development of digital capabilities. Two key characteristics are identified: the source of digital capability development and the set-up of the actors involved. The authors synthesize four possible pathway manifestations, discuss the dynamic nature of pathway combinations, and suggest that managing a portfolio of pathways may be crucial for pre-digital organizations. Therefore, the study contributes to a better understanding of digital transformation in pre-digital organizations. Furthermore, it provides guidance for practitioners to reflect on when deciding which pathways to follow.
