This paper deals with a study on a method to support the decision on entering business areas in a business model consisting of manufacturing and service. This method divides the business model into business areas by the functions that support a company to decide whether it should enter business areas. This method prioritizes the areas from the aspects of profit opportunities, barriers to entry, and interactions between the areas. This method reduces the time to decide which business area to enter and reduces the number of examination objects to the number of business areas (n) or fewer from the total number of possible combinations (2 to the 2nd power n). To confirm the efficiency of this method, we demonstrated two case studies in the IT services industry. In the first case study, from the perspective of a UPS battery supplier, the number of examination objects is 3 when the number of business areas is 11. And the first case study indicates that a suitable strategy for a battery supplier is to concentrate on the strategy of supplying batteries. In the second case study, from the perspective of an IT service provider, the number of examination objects is 10 when the number of business areas is 11. The second case study indicates that a suitable strategy for an IT service provider is vertical integration from software development to data center operation and hardware manufacturing.

Purpose This study aims to illustrate the current understanding of the concept of intrapreneurship by comparing it with that of a traditional project. Design/methodology/approach A meta-model was used to demonstrate how the two concepts overlap and what differences exist. Furthermore, a case study was conducted with an IT service provider from the banking sector in which 12 qualitative interviews with intrapreneurs were held and used to summarize the differences between projects and intrapreneurship initiatives from the intrapreneurs’ point of view. Findings This study identified two major differences: First, unlike in projects, the client has no clear objective in intrapreneurship; rather, only the sponsors maintain a general goal. Second, intrapreneurship allows for circumventing constraints and thus for working with more freedom and the possibility of failure. Originality/value This study used an explanatory model to summarize differences and clarify the concept of intrapreneurship.

Modern IT service provider organizations are under a continuous pressure to increase their competitiveness. Ways to reduce costs while improving performance of services are a key focus area for companies in the IT industry. However, despite all the solutions that have been proposed, modeling and optimizing human-centered processes remains a challenging task. The human operator may be influenced by multiple factors and execute the process in a different way each time, thus introducing a significant variability in the final process outcome. Therefore, the goal of this chapter is to introduce the concept of mashups as an effective approach to improve performance in terms of productivity and reliability of human-centered IT Service Management (ITSM) activities. In particular, this chapter aims to define management solutions required to deliver and demonstrate improvements in performance of human-centered ITSM processes. The introduced management solutions are examined through a real case study, related to the Request Fulfillment process.

Information System should be an enabler for the business, enabling the company to innovate, persist and evolve in trying to fulfill customer needs. This research is a case study about planning of strategic information system at one of the national IS/IT solution and product provider. Using the methodology developed by Ward and Peppard, this study investigates the urgent and necessary IS for future development and future needs, with data collected directly or indirectly in the form of primary and secondary data. Based on the results of the research, the company can develop IS which sorted by priority using Mc Farlan's Strategic Grid and grouped into support application, key operational, strategic, and high potential applications which each have different benefits of each other . Furthermore, it is expected that the development is planned to be implemented gradually in the next four years with the new IS policies that can be implemented within the company.
