Summary: | This paper takes the form of a general review. It introduces the notion of government-industry collaboration and information sharing in the Halal industry that work together for achieving common goals such as in economic, health, environmental, and social well-being – moving towards making living more meaningful, productive, fruitful and profound. Technological empowerment – in particular inter-organizational information systems (IS) and information sharing – is regarded as the key driver for supporting a sustainable economic development at the global, regional and local levels. Through IS, it is viable and essential to establish a global knowledge base, shared, used, enhanced and contributed to by a variety of experts and professionals throughout the world in different fields toward achieving common goals.
The paper raises awareness of relevant government-industry collaboration initiatives, leveraging on the strategic use of IS to promote individual and community growth as well as to facilitate sustainable development. As there are five main components of an IS – hardware, software,data, procedures/processes, and people – this also mean that many different skills and effective change management programs are required to ensure users’ acceptance, leadership commitment and business processes between organizations are
improved in ensuring ISs are effective in delivering the business goals of participating partners and collaborators. |
