While assessing the potential of a particular digital innovation initiative, especially when it has implications for a range of societal stakeholders, it becomes pertinent to understand the possible bottlenecks in its acceptability as well. In this regard, the present study seeks to understand how the Open Government Data (OGD) initiatives in Brazil are being confronted with bottlenecks in terms of their execution and acceptability. This exploratory study adopts a qualitative cross-sectional research approach wherein interviews are being conducted with 11 managers working in public organizations and are directly associated with the OGD initiatives. Findings from the interview responses delineate internal and external factors, resource availability, data maintenance, and lack of knowledge as the key determinants for the bottlenecks associated with the execution and acceptability of OGD initiatives by the societal stakeholders. The study's originality lies in its theoretical contribution towards an understanding of how a novel digital innovation-OGD, in the present case- is fraught with impediments in terms of its execution and acceptability. The study concludes with directions for further research and practitioner implications.

评估巴西开放政府数据计划的失败

在评估特定数字创新举措的潜力时,特别是当它对一系列社会利益相关者产生影响时,了解其可接受性可能存在的瓶颈也变得有意义。在这方面,本研究旨在了解巴西的开放政府数据(OGD)举措如何在执行和可接受性方面遇到瓶颈。这项探索性研究采用定性横断面研究方法,其中对 11 名在公共组织工作且与 OGD 计划直接相关的管理人员进行了访谈。访谈结果表明,内部和外部因素、资源可用性、数据维护和知识缺乏是 OGD 计划执行和社会利益相关者可接受性相关瓶颈的关键决定因素。该研究的独创性在于其理论贡献在于,它有助于理解新颖的数字创新(在本例中为 OGD)在执行和可接受性方面充满障碍。该研究最后给出了进一步研究的方向和从业者的影响。
