Christensen in his 1997 book, “The Innovators Dilemma” describes new technologies (or innovations) changing and making obsolete already existing ones.

Evolution of these technologies have been adopted by many countries to help their organizations and entire economy be on the edge of competing markets.
In Ghana several big organizations understand the importance of disruptive innovation as competitive tool and have developed models containing strategies for implementing these digital innovations in their operations. This research proposes a model consisting of generic competitive strategy proposed by Michael Porter (1985) for all sectors of the economy to help even small-scale startups compete in the digital market.
This exploratory research evolves through various literature survey and model reviews regarding the field of the study by employing a qualitative approach to analyze published articles, research papers, books and reports relevant to the study.
In conclusion, this research explains why disruptive innovation needs effective competitive tools to aid stakeholders adopt the best strategy and planning blueprint to formulate a good business plan, which will help harness good deployment of resource for digital competitive advantage.
