  • determinants of application service provider asp adoption as an innovation
    Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences, 2005
    Co-Authors: N Daylami, Terry Ryan, Lorne Olfman, Conrad Shayo
    Abstract:

    The trend toward external procurement of software and services has led to the emergence of application service providers (ASPs). While prior research has investigated the use of ASPs as a form of outsourcing, this study considers ASP from multiple perspectives, both as a genre of outsourcing and as an IT innovation. Employing Tornatzky and Fleischer's (1990) theoretical framework, this study identifies the most important determinants of ASP adoption. A model that explains ASP diffusion and infusion is specified and tested using PLS. Some of the most important factors of ASP adoption identified in the study include: top management orientation, integration capability, internal IS expertise and competitive pressure. Other factors such as relationship management, service quality, relative advantage and cost were found to be less important. With the phenomenon of ASP at a very early stage, this study provides an opportunity to understand the immediate and practical implications of its adoption.

  • the evolution of software pricing from box licenses to application service provider models
    Internet Research, 2000
    Co-Authors: Nick Bontis, Honsan Chung
    Abstract:

    Software is the intellectual capital output of the codified knowledge of a programming team. The development cost is high, but the variable cost of sale is substantially lower (negligible) than for hard goods. Unfortunately, there does not exist a valid or reliable measure to value software. The trend has been to align pricing to the activities that buyers realize value from. However, new architectures change the nature of where value is realized and how service becomes part of the equation. There does not exist a perfect generic pricing model. Vendors must understand the value they provide to their customers and create a price structure that aligns pricing with value realization, but more importantly facilitates their business objectives of the product (and service).
