We discuss ICT for Open Innovation (OI) from a capabilities perspective. We distinguish two types of capabilities for OI: strategic, which need to be developed so that the organization can take advantage of an OI strategy proactively, and operational for the efficient implementation of OI processes. ICT at the strategic level supports dynamic capabilities and related cognitive processes of managerial staff for developing and using the appropriate level of absorptive capacity and active transparency, whereas ICT as part of operational capabilities aims at enhancing the day-to-day performance of OI activities. Through analysis of capabilities, we associate specific ICT with the functionalities required in the entire OI process. Paying particular attention to the issues of collaboration and sophisticated data analysis, we also comment on the seamless integration of these technologies and their embedment in OI-related organizational processes.

我们从功能的角度讨论了ICT的开放创新（OI）。我们区分OI的两种类型的能力：战略性的，需要进行开发，以便组织可以主动利用OI战略的能力，以及运营的高效实施OI流程。战略一级的信息和通信技术支持管理人员的动态能力和相关的认知过程，以发展和利用适当水平的吸收能力和主动透明性，而信息和通信技术作为业务能力的一部分，旨在提高OI活动的日常绩效。通过能力分析，我们将特定的ICT与整个OI流程所需的功能关联起来。我们特别关注协作和复杂数据分析的问题，并评论了这些技术的无缝集成及其在OI相关组织过程中的嵌入。
