Abstract:
A review of the literature shows that few have investigated the relationships among organisational culture, information technology (IT) resources, on the one hand and enterprise resource planning (ERP) system success, on the other. This study is designed to fill this gap in research. Surveys were conducted for two Northern European countries. Respondents from 44 private and industrial organisations provided data for analysis. A conceptualised model was developed to test two hypotheses examining the influences of the firm's culture and IT resources on ERP success. The data showed that both organisational culture and the availability of IT resources are positively related to the success of ERP for adopting firms. Of note is the fact that the IT resources construct was seen to be more significant in ensuring higher levels of success with the application than the culture of the adopting organisation.
