Title
An integrative public IoT framework for smart government
Abstract
The Internet of Things (IoT) has gained significant importance in science and management and holds great value creation potential for public services. A pressing issue in this regard is how governments and public organizations can adapt their traditional structures and processes to the innovative field of the IoT to create public value. Previous research fails to provide a holistic explanation to this research question. Its technological background and predominant consideration in technology-based research areas has led to a one-sided understanding of the IoT concept that neglects its value-adding aspects. To fill in this research gap, this study presents an integrative public IoT framework for smart government, consolidating insights from IoT literature and related fields of research, complementing the so far predominant technology perspective of IoT with important business-related or value-adding aspects. In doing so, it enhances our understanding of public management-specific key dimensions and aspects of the IoT, serving as a holistic guidance for future research as well as practical implementation and application.
