Query: Cross-contextual use of integrated information systems   Large-scale organizations are increasingly promoting more collaborative and
collective work practices across organizational boarders. A predominant way to
achieve better collaboration in large- scale heterogeneous contexts is to
establish an integrated and standardized technological infrastructure.
Ethnographically inspired studies, on the other hand, have challenged such
perspective and illustrated that generic technology does not fit in local
contexts and needs to be worked-around. Similarly, this paper empirically
exemplifies local workarounds and illustrates ongoing and persistently
imperfect integration of a collaborative infrastructure in a global oil and gas
company. More importantly, however, our analysis focuses on how integrated
technology is used across contexts. We illustrate how local workarounds, as a
result of tight technological integration, shape use patterns across contexts.
Integrated systems establish interdependencies across contexts, thus, the use
implies cross-contextual rather than local enactment. Since the trajectory of
enactment is influenced by cross-contextual constrains, our study is addressing
the existing overemphasis on studying/analysing the use of technology in
isolated local contexts. Practically, our study suggests considering
workarounds as an intrinsic part of every day work, which should be calculated
as additional costs of making the generic technology to work in practice.
