Abstract: We take a theory-driven approach to designing an evidence management system. The ultimate purpose is to promote evidence-based management. The immediate purpose is to capture, curate, maintain, and deliver evidence gathered from both management research and management practice in a format usable by both humans and intelligent systems. The unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) and the theory of planned behaviour serve as the framework for the design, resulting in a design theory and empirical propositions. Our design offers a platform to facilitate ongoing communication between researchers and practitioners as well as a trustworthy mechanism for delivering the evidence to the end user in real-time. It comprises an evidence template, a wiki platform for bidirectional communication, and blockchain technology for ensuring trust among evidence users.
