  • With maturity of the outsourcing industry, many firms consider outsourcing of Information Technology (IT) and IT-enabled business services as a strategic imperative. In the growing body of literature on outsourcing this strategic perspective has been reflected in several papers published recently in JSIS and other IS journals . Viewed as an integral part of business strategy, outsourcing engagements, partnership and alliances offer client firms multiple sources of competitive advantage, among them innovation. While in the earlier days of outsourcing incremental and operational innovation in business processes was expected from vendors, recent years have witnessed an elevation in clients' expectation regarding innovation. Innovations in outsourcing partnerships were now to deliver strategic impact and were expected to improve the firm's business objectives. Strategic innovations in outsourcing were defined as those that significantly enhance the firm's product/service offerings for existing target customers, or enable the firm to enter new markets .
• We invite research articles that investigate this topic from various angles (client, vendor, advisory), different levels of analysis (e.g. outsourcing engagement, firm) and applying different theories and views on innovation. Some of the aspects this special issue takes interest in are:
•  What strategic innovation in outsourcing is and how it should be understood in view of existing innovation theories or outsourcing literature?
•  How tensions between strategic innovation and outsourcing structures, processes and strategies should be understood and interpreted?
•  What are the antecedents of strategic innovation in outsourcing and are these subject of sourcing models?
•  What capabilities vendors require in order to deliver strategic innovation in outsourcing?
•  What are the relationships between strategic innovation outcomes and outsourcing
  • outcomes?
•  How outsourcing could be utilized as a strategic tool to achieve innovation?
•  Does strategic innovation change the value proposition of outsourcing at the firm,
  • industry and society level?
  • To be considered for publication, papers must be submitted electronically by May 20, 2014. Papers that pass the initial screening will undergo no more than two rounds of revision. Papers not accepted by the end of the second round of revision will be rejected. The authors have three months to revise their paper.
