In an increasingly changing market environment, the long-term survival of companies depends on their ability to reduce latencies in adapting to new market conditions. One strategy to meet this challenge is the anchoring of data-driven decision making, which leads to an increasing use of advanced information technologies and, subsequently, to an increase in the amount of data stored. The complexity of processing these data spurred the demand for advanced statistical methods and functions called Business Analytics. Companies are, despite all promised benefits, overwhelmed with the implementation of Business Analytics as indicated by a failure rate of 65 to 80 %. This paper provides an empirically validated, multi-dimensional model that takes an integrative look at critical success factors for the implementation
of Business Analytics and based on which management recommendations can be generated. For this purpose, constructs of the model are conceptualized, before a structural equation model is developed. This model is then validated with data from 69 industrial partners in the food industry. It is shown amongst others, that the three success factors top management support, IT infrastructure and system quality are pivotal to increase the company performance.
Die Blockchain-Technologie (BCT) ist eine der vielversprechendsten Technologien der Gegenwart, die in Zukunft insbesondere für produzierende Unternehmen eine noch größere Bedeutung haben wird, um die unternehmensübergreifende Zusammenarbeit zu verbessern und Prozesse gegenüber dem Kunden transparenter zu gestalten. Trotzdessen wird die BCT als vertrauensschaffendes Instrument noch nicht in der Breite angewendet. In diesem Beitrag werden neben den Potenzialen die Herausforderungen für den Einsatz der BCT erörtert und auf Basis des St. Gallener Management-Modells ein Lösungskonzept hergeleitet, welches dem potenziellen Anwender der BCT mögliche Anwendungsszenarien aufzeigt.
