Contrasting ERP infusion and absorption capacities between transition and developed economies from the CEE region
This paper investigates IT value creation in transition and developed economies in Central
and Eastern Europe. Using absorptive capacity theory and data envelopment analysis, we
view business process transformation in ERP adoption as an economic production process.
Data analysis suggests that the "sum of history" shapes adoption performance of firms,
meaning that transition economies may suffer from less developed absorptive capacities in
regard to IT and therefore face a greater challenge in ERP utilisation
