E-innovation: information quality perspective

The paper employs a case study methodology and uses performance - importance analysis to determine the information quality dimensions that affect the e-innovation process. The selected case is a high technology organisation dealing with the design and manufacturing electronic equipments and tools used for medical test. The equipments designed by the organisation comprise components designed by other three high-tech organisations. Results indicate that timeliness interpretability, coherency and compatibility are the most critical (decisive) IQ dimensions affecting the e-innovation process.
