Özet
Digital transformation creates opportunities like new business structures, strategies, and models. However, these opportunities bring also new challenges. Starting the digitalization process before the pandemic has been an advantage for companies. Today, digital transformation is seen as a must and it reached its peak in some sectors during the pandemic. Business networks in general, Business to Customer (B2C) business networks specifically met serious problems during the lock-down periods. Monitoring and control are some of the fundamental tools that are used by the network owners to keep everything under control. In addition to the obstacles in main business activities, control cannot be performed properly in many B2C networks, due to traveling and other restrictions during the pandemic. This article aims to provide insights regarding the challenges experienced during the pandemic from a digitalization perspective. Furthermore, based on the digital solutions during the pandemic, this research aims to review how business networks reacted to the crisis and solved main governance problems. Organizations have started to use new processes to monitor and control their networks. The solutions developed to these challenges and their effect on governance will also be investigated in this article. © Peter Lang GmbH.
