- Towards an information system for social value creationPublication . Nascimento, João; Barradas, Luís Cláudio; Martins, LuísPurpose: This research is scoped in the Project “VOLTO JÁ: PROGRAMA DE INTERCÂMBIO SÉNIOR” and objects the development of an Information System, which aims to support the social business model of the Project. Design/methodology/approach: This research is conceived according to the Design Science framework in Information Systems. The Design Cycle is concerned with the development of a software artefact and an instantiation that will operationalise the VOLTO JÁ Business Model in a real scenario of elderly mobility, aiming to assess the utility, efficiency and quality of the artefact in order to achieve the goals of the project. The design of the software artefact was guided by the Dynamic Systems Development Method framework. This work encompasses only the Business study, the functional model iteration, and implementation iteration. The Business study comprised the definition of the Business Process Model and the requirements management: (1) the requirement elicitation; (2) specification and (3) validation. The Information System being developed comprises a Web platform and a Mobile application, structured on a multi-layered architecture of six layers. The Web platform is being developed with the Yii framework 2.0. The PhoneGap and Nativescript frameworks are under consideration for the development of the Mobile application. Findings: The software artefact is already on the development stage. The proposed software architecture has already been validated and some of the business processes are already supported. Originality/value: As far as we know, there are no other similar projects to compare to. We might remotely compare our project to with Travel 2.0 systems, such as Booking.com. However, we are focused on a very specific target with peculiarities that these systems are not prepared to deal with. This attests to the relevance and uniqueness of our proposal.
- Book of Abstracts of the 1st International Conference on Management, Technology and Tourism:Social Value Creation – ICOMTT2020Publication . Bernardes De Oliveira, Sandra Margarida; Leal, Susana; Vivas, C.; Barradas, Luís Cláudio; Nascimento, João; São João, Ricardo; Ferreira, Maria Regina; Passarinho, Aldo; Rodrigues, Ana; Santos, Cristina; Amaral, MartaThe 1st International Conference on Management, Technology, and Tourism: Social Value Creation (ICOMTT2020) emerges as an outcome of the Volto Já Project - Senior Exchange Program, developed by Polytechnic Institute of Santarém, Polytechnic Institute of Beja and Santa Casa da Misericórdia de Santarém. During the 6th and 7th of February 2020, at the School of Management and Technology of Santarém, Portugal, we celebrate and share the knowledge built on this close relationship. In these two special days, the ICOMTT2020 provides an opportunity for researchers, academics, national and international experts, entrepreneurs, and community leaders to exchange and share their experiences, results and deepen the debate on social value creation. Value creation is a pillar of corporate sustainability, but it is not enough! The challenges of the next decades require a change in the dominant paradigm for the creation of social value that is the guarantee of the regions' sustainability. This paradigm shift will be analysed and debated thoroughly according to the major areas of ICOMTT2020: Management, Technology, and Tourism.
