Abstract

There is a rapid and extensive progress in digital technologies and organizations need resources to build a successful path. Frugal solutions help companies to make economical digital investment which could be called frugal digitalization. This study examines the scope of frugal digitalization by synthesizing the existing articles that combine digital and minimal resource consumption. Therefore, a scoping review is conducted, and 59 articles are finally included. The result revealed that frugality, bricolage, jugaad, and moderation are the close concepts used to represent the minimal resource consumption. The study's results indicate that digitalization, digital transformation, digital orientation, and information communication technologies (ICT) adoption are the close concepts used to represent the digital phenomenon. These concepts can intertwine and establish connections between them. This study contributes to the literature by identifying the most often used concepts that reflect the digital era and the economical approach. Furthermore, this study offers practical implications: it validates the existing intersection in the business world and motivates professionals to go further in such a way. We conclude by outlining the next steps for the matrix, which will show how minimal resource consumption connects with the three stages of digital transformation-digitization, digitalization, and digital transformation.
