Abstract

This paper is based on the following postulates taken from a book recently published by this author (Sáez-Vacas, 1990(1)):
a) technological innovation in a company is understood to be the process and set of changes that the company undergoes as a result of a specific type of technology;
b) the incorporation of technology in the company does not necessarily result in innovation, modernization and progress;
c) the very words "modernization" and "progress" are completely bereft of any meaning if isolated from the concept of complexity in its broadest sense, including the
human factor.
Turning to office technology in specific, the problem of managing office technology for business innovation purposes can be likened to the problem of managing third level
complexity, following the guidelines of a three-level complexity model proposed by the author some years ago
