Purpose: This paper presents a structured literature review of studies on IT-enabled organizational transformation to determine the state of the art and to identify areas for future research. Design/methodology/approach: We collect 201 academic publications on IT-enabled organizational transformation and analyze them from three perspectives: a publication perspective, a research perspective and a conceptual perspective. Findings: From a publication perspective, we identify and synthesize the seminal works to provide a brief history of research on IT-enabled organizational transformation. From a research perspective, we show that studies in this area have seldom been grounded in theory and have predominantly used qualitative approaches, while only a few studies have drawn from quantitative data. From a conceptual perspective, we show that most research has studied higher levels of transformation, especially process redesign. Originality/value: This review presents the landscape of the literature on IT-enabled organizational transformation, which provides a foundation for future research.
