I'd been called away from my desk for a while and finally got caught
up on my email. This is a belated contribution to the discussion, but
I thought I should point out the article "Corporate Startegies for
Information Technology: A Resource-Based approach" by Eric Clemons in
the IEEE Computer, Nov. 1991. Since I'm still trying to get caught up
on things other than email, I can only summarize my recollections and
see if that stimulates interest in getting further details. The
article primarily presented the case for sharing information between
corporations, and had a number of examples to support his thesis, or
portions thereof. The examples were both positive, directly supporting
his case, or negative, arguing against an alternative. To whet your
interest, I'll note that some of the examples were Rosenbluth Travel,
Provident National Bank, The Big Bang, McKesson Drug, Barclays de
Zoete World Trade, and The New York Cash Exchange.

P.S.: This discussion, though interesting and useful, seems to misuse
the all-iceimt mailing list as I understand it. My own contribution is
also "guilty" in this regard. So I'm sending a note to
action-officers-iceimt indicating preliminary need for a
discussio-oriented mailing list. Let them know if you feel such a need
as well.
