Abstract

This study seeks to explore the factors and conditions that influence the adoption and implementation of open innovation practices in public sector agencies. It examines the implementation of a web-based crowdsourcing platform used to solicit public input in solving problems encountered by agencies. Theoretical development is based on open innovation literature in private firms and draws on classic innovation literature from both the private and public sectors. Qualitative data is collected through interviews and analyzed using a combination of deductive and inductive coding. The expected outcome is the deeper understanding of the influencing factors and conditions, as well as the various characteristics of these practices.
