Big data and big data analytics have been considered to be a disruptive technology that will rebuild business intelligence. The purpose of this study is to enrich the literature on the organizational impact of business intelligence and big data based on management theory. While the majority of the organizational theories have had research dedicated to enhance the understanding of the impact of business intelligence and big data on organizational performance and decision-making, the research lacks scholarly work capable of identifying the other main organizational outcomes. To achieve this goal, a semi-systematic literature review was carried out to find all studies related to the research topic. Then, an analysis was conducted to understand the use of the organizational theory in accordance with business intelligence and big data. Finally, a grouping was developed to assign each organizational theory the related impact. The main findings of this work, after examining thirty-three related organizational theories, was that there are other important organizational impacts including innovation, agility, adoption, and supply-chain support.
