| description | Understanding the major roles and functions of
Information Technology (IT) in an organisation
is an important factor in shaping an organisation’s characteristics and determining
the usage of IT as an enabler in a business.A
survey on small and medium sized industries in
Malaysia has been carried out in order to
identify and recognise the usage of IT in
businesses.The parameters such as
organisational details (i.e. the numbers of
employees, sales or profitability and the type of
business) and managers details (in terms of
educational level, computer literacy and
computer experiences) were studied in order to
see whether these parameters do contribute
towards the usage of IT in businesses. Based on
the results of the survey, an IT adoption model is
proposed.This IT adoption model can be used as
a framework for users who wishes to set-up a
business.Due to the diverse cultural
composition, the model can also be used as
guidelines to émigré entrepreneurs of the
important areas in setting-up new SMIs in
Malaysia. |
