Information Technology Innovation in the U.S. Army: The Case of the Adoption, Adaptation, and Utilization of the Strategic Crisis Exercise Intranet.

Abstract

The U.S. Army has undergone dramatic changes in its structure and operating procedures in recent years as a result of the introduction of new information technologies. This study examines the adoption and adaptation of an information technology innovation in a U.S. Army organization. While previous studies have focused on the technologies themselves, this study investigates the process of innovation adoption, with special attention paid to how the technology and the organization influence each other.
