  "summary": "Delivering a tool does not mean people will use it. Research on technology acceptance helps distinguish acceptance of a deliverable from its adoption in everyday work.",

    {
      "heading": "What the literature establishes",
      "point": "Fred Davis (1989, MIS Quarterly) shows that perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use are associated with acceptance of computer-based tools, with a stronger relationship for perceived usefulness in the studies reported."
    },
    {
      "heading": "Usefulness takes shape in a work context",
      "point": "Viswanath Venkatesh and Fred Davis (2000, Management Science) examine the social influences and cognitive processes contributing to perceived usefulness and intention to use through four longitudinal field studies."
    },
    {
      "heading": "The premature conclusion",
      "point": "One might conclude that convincing users of the tool’s usefulness is enough."
    },
    {
      "heading": "What these findings cannot promise",
      "point": "These studies concern acceptance of information systems; they do not provide general evidence covering every type of project deliverable."

    {
      "heading": "A practical check in Sion",
      "point": "In Sion, this check could involve a tool for tracking hydropower maintenance, coordinating healthcare, ensuring wine traceability or managing Alpine tourism bookings."
