QuaSiD: Quality assurance in the digitisation strategy: success factors and constellations of actors in the dissemination and anchoring

Objective

The project focuses on the question of the moments and the central constellations of actors that constitute a successful dissemination and sustainable anchoring as a quality assurance measure of digitisation projects within the digitisation strategy. To this end, in a first step, the actor constellations involved in this process and their effects will be examined by means of case studies and a method triangulation of guideline interviews and document analyses with the help of actor-network theory (cf. for example Callon & Latour 1981; Callon 1986; Latour 1987; Law 1992). Strategies currently in use will also be analysed and reflected upon under the premise of the university as a special form of organisation (cf. Cohen/March 1974; Mintzberg 1979). In a second step, patterns of success or failure factors are identified. Finally, in the third and final step, the insights gained are compiled and recommendations for action developed on this basis.
