Abstract: Companies in many industries simultaneously face competitive pressures and unprecedented speed of change in business conditions. As IT budgets are limited, process owners and IT departments need to decide how to divide their spending on efficiency-enhancing and flexibility-enhancing IT capabilities to optimally support the execution of business processes. Turning from thinking of efficiency and flexibility as trade-off towards ambidexterity puts focus on simultaneously pursuing efficiency through exploitative and flexibility through explorative business process IT (BPIT) capabilities. So far the effects of BPIT ambidexterity at the business process level haven’t been analysed. This gap is addressed by investigating the impact of exploitative and explorative BPIT capabilities on business process performance through a quantitative study in the German utilities sector as one instance of highly competitive and dynamic industries. We transfer the concept of organizational ambidexterity to the business process context and develop a variance-theoretical model explaining the impact of business process IT ambidexterity on business process performance. Thus we intend to contribute to research in the areas of business process management (BPM) by showing the importance of balancing efficiency and flexibility for a business process and ambidexterity in IS by expanding existing work through focussing on the business process level.
