Abstract

ABSTRACT This research examines the relationships between technological, organizational, and environmental (TOE) factors on different levels of B2B e-commerce adoption. A survey of 315 Ghanaian manufacturing SMEs was validated and tested using partial least squares structural equation modeling. The research findings indicate that perceived desirability, organization’s readiness, and competitive pressure positively and significantly influence the different B2B e-commerce adoption levels. Likewise, top management support and government support partially had a significant impact on the various levels of B2B e-commerce adoption, whereas the business partner’s pressure has no significant influence on B2B e-commerce adoption levels. This research’s results confirm that the TOE factors influence B2B e-commerce adoption levels in the Ghanaian manufacturing SMEs. The results reveal that the various contextual factors have a different effect on the different levels of B2B e-commerce adoption. Also, the implications of this study are subsequently discussed.

中小制造企业采用B2B电子商务的决定因素

本研究探讨了技术、组织和环境(TOE)因素在不同层次的B2B电子商务采用之间的关系。利用偏最小二乘结构方程模型对315家加纳制造业中小企业的调查结果进行了验证和检验。研究结果表明，感知可取性、组织准备程度和竞争压力对不同的B2B电子商务采用水平有显著的正向影响。同样，高层管理支持和政府支持对B2B电子商务采用的各个层次都有部分显著影响，而业务伙伴的压力对B2B电子商务采用水平没有显著影响。本研究的结果证实了TOE因素影响了加纳制造业中小企业的B2B电子商务采用水平。结果表明，不同的情境因素对不同层次的B2B电子商务采用有不同的影响。此外，本研究的意义随后进行了讨论。
