Abstract: Instead of a questionnaire survey of either user-side or vendor-side in the traditional research scheme on IT management innovation, we use a case study method bridging between user-side and vendor-side in order to elicit a new perspective on the improvement of the sophistication of the management using the common languages between user and vendor of software, a stationary measurement tool of IT projects on the information circulation platform, a world-wide excellent community for IT project comparisons, and spillover effects of the visualisation of the value-creation mechanism in the information services on the other industries in the service sector.

Keywords: IT management; information technology; enterprise systems; management innovation; learning; social research; service science; science for society; software users; software vendors; value creation; information services.
