Abstract: Elements of strategic management of technology (MoT) are discovered and outlined in a conceptual framework. Strategic MoT is a necessity for creation and execution of technology strategy for sustained competitive advantage of an enterprise. In absence of coherent frameworks, practitioners encounter difficulties to cope with complexity of MoT. Amended framework, based on integrated management theory, considers comprehensively elements of company's internal technology infrastructure, objectives and external environment impacts. The strategic MoT framework is suggested to provide theory basis for scholars and be applicable for practitioners to enable clarity and convergence of technology management field.
