Technology Introduction as a Time-Extended, Social Process: Key Articulations in the Literature

What happens after new technologies have been rolled out in organisations? This question has motivated a wide range of academic works in diverse intellectual communities, such as HCI (Bannon and Bødker, 1989), STS (Mackay and Gillespie, 1992), Organisational Studies (Lewis and Seibold, 1993) and IS (Lamb and Kling, 2003). This issue has assumed increasing importance in light of recent proliferation of new malleable technologies. Different notions such as ‘postimplementation participation’ (Wagner and Newell, 2007), ‘post-adoptive behaviours’ (Jasperson, Carter and Zmud, 2005), ‘ICT appropriation’ (Hussenot, 2008) and ‘mutual adaptation’ (Bansler and Havn, 2006) have been put forward to answer this question. What these notions have in common is an acknowledgement of the limitations of dominant decision-oriented approaches to IT implementation (Swanson, 1974), technology acceptance (Davis, 1985), and task-technology fit (Goodhue and Thompson, 1995).
