Supply Chain Technology, Diffusion of Innovation (DOI), Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME's), Technology-Organization-Environment (TOE)Abstract
Supply chain technology (SCT) is a tool to improve MSMEs' performance. Although SCT is widely utilised in various industries, its adoption by MSMEs is limited. Hence, this study aims to determine the relationship and develop the framework of technological, organisational, and environmental factors and MSME's performance using SCT adoption as a mediator. This study will employ the Diffusion of Innovation (DOI) and Technology-Organization-Environment (TOE) theories. Data will be collected through a questionnaire and analysed using (PLS-SEM). This study will provide significant information for MSMEs to further utilize the benefits of SCT adoption for improving organisational performance.
