About

Helmut Krcmar is a leading figure in information systems research, with a focus on business process automation, digital transformation, and the intersection of emerging technologies with organizational practice. His work has been instrumental in exploring how novel tools like blockchain and robotic process automation (RPA) can be harnessed for real-world business efficiency. A notable contribution is his exploratory case study on smart contracts for process automation (2021, 31 citations), which provided early, practical insights into the adoption challenges and potential of blockchain-based automation. Krcmar has also advanced the understanding of decentralized RPA development, proposing frameworks to empower subject matter experts as low-code developers (2023, 5 citations), thereby bridging the gap between IT and business units. Beyond automation, he has contributed to computing education, developing structured lesson plans for playful learning approaches to programming (2017, 6 citations). With a career spanning decades at institutions like the Technical University of Munich, Krcmar’s research consistently shapes how organizations integrate digital technologies, offering both theoretical foundations and actionable guidance for practitioners and scholars alike.
