其他摘要:This empirical study of organisational e-business adoption, utilising both qualitative and quantitative data collection methods, examines four major factors influencing adoption in multiple e-business process domains. Support is found for the proposition that factors influencing e-business adoption behaviour have different levels of impact across different e-business process domains. Different combinations of factors influence different ebusiness processes and for the most part this occurs independently of organisation size/resource capacity. For example, governments and powerful supply chain organisations have strong influence over some organisational e-business strategy. In particular, e-government influence is strong with regard to use of e-mail and external web sites due to government´s legislative and regulatory compliance power. However, government influence is weak with regard to operation of an organisation´s own web sites. A conceptual model of antecedents and performance outcomes of e-business adoption is modified to take account of findings from this study.
