Digital technologies have significantly altered the connectivity and flexibility in the business ecosystem. Improved collaboration and early customer engagement in the value chain
open new possibilities for network-based business models, increased efficiency and reduced costs. The main research questions in this PhD project are:
1) What new ways of collaboration in the complex value chain are made possible in the digital age?
2) What can facilitate or constrain the interand intra-organizational collaboration in the oil and gas value chain?
3) How can digital technologies assist in overcoming organizational silos?
4) What is the role of human-to-human and human-to-machine trust for digital transformation?

Project result: Transactive memory analysis on the role of digital technologies
