| description | When intranet was first conceived a decade ago, its adoption was only affordable by large business enterprise or
organizations. However, at present, intranet adoption has become so prevalent that almost every organizations,
irrespective of sizes and business nature has diffused intranet into their business operations and activities. While studies
addressing the effectiveness of the intranet have been greatly reported in the literature, very few have really explored or
focused on the antecedents or determinants to intranet effectiveness. Specifically, none has ever attempted to examine
the effect of information technology (IT) infrastructure capabilities on intranet effectiveness. Against this concern, this
study is an attempt to explore the relationship between IT infrastructure flexibility and intranet effectiveness. In addition,
it also seeks to investigate the perceived level of IT infrastructure flexibility and intranet effectiveness in the context of
public organizations in Malaysia. Based on the results of the analysis, this study has empirically showed that IT
infrastructure flexibility comprising of connectivity and IT personnel are influential in determining intranet
effectiveness measured in terms of operation, culture and facilitation. |
