Abstract

The advance of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) at Higher Education Institution (HEI) has moved beyond decision support system as it has now become an important intellectual capital asset that will determine the sustainable competitive advantage. The collection of information from internal resources through knowledge management (KM) has been regarded as one of the prominent sources to achieve sustainable competitive advantage. The implementation of KM was not substantial enough as it was expected, while precious information still scattered around the organization and yet organized and collected as it was supposed to be. Therefore, we surveyed HEI’s students and faculty members to obtain their perception on the role of Blockchain technology as well as for them to voluntarily share their knowledge freely but still regarded as rightful owner of the intellectual capital. Through the current study, we found that KM positively influences Sustainable Competitive Advantage and Blockchain is aptly proposed to become an intervening variable for sustainable competitive advantage.
