| Abstract: | Using a case study methodology, this study aims at developing an evolutionary model for IT use by American American convention and visitors bureaus (CVBs). The results provide insight into the current status of IT use in American CVBs and the short-term challenges faced by these organizations. It is found that organizational capability influences IT use, leading to distinct implementation effects. Additionally, advancements in IT did not spread uniformly across four information activity dimensions and appear to occur in five recursive and sequential stages, namely, substitution, enlargement, gestation, reconfiguration, and setback. |
