Purpose: The aim of this research is to verify whether the characteristics of the environment are strengthening the influence of IT adaptability on organizational performance. Design/methodology/approach: In order to verify the potential relations, empirical studies were conducted in 1160 organizations located in Poland, Italy, and the USA. The CAWI method was used in this research, while the companies were selected on the basis of the purposive manner. The reliability of the scales used in the survey was tested and afterwards the moderation model was built, confirming the presumed relationships between the variables. Findings: It has been proven that the more VUCA the environment is, the stronger the influence of IT adaptability on organizational performance. Research limitations/implications: The limitations of the research include: performing analyzes only in three countries, purposeful sampling, data collection period, and the application of selected constructs to the model. The future studies proposals included in the article are aimed at reducing cognitive space. Practical implications: Research results can support organizational managers who, by ensuring IT with appropriate characteristics (such as IT adaptability), are able enhance organizational performance in turbulent and difficult environmental conditions. Originality/value: The research enriches existing knowledge in the field of organizational performance. Including the issue of IT adaptability in considerations in this area allows for providing support to organizations operating in conditions of uncertainty. (original abstract)
