Abstract:
Purpose: The current study investigated the impact of top management support (TMS),
technological factors and information quality (IQ) on implementation of e-Procurement
leading towards firm performance (CP) in the textile sector ofPakistan.
Methodology: For the purpose of this investigation, an approach that combined deductive
reasoning with quantitative analysis was used. Pertinent information was collected from SC
experts and executives of Karachi's textile companies. Purposive nonprobability sampling
was used in the current investigation. In order to collect data for the current study, both in person and online surveys were used. Moreover, PLS-SEM using SmartPLS v3 has been
used for data analysis.
Findings: The results revealed that top management support, technological factors and
information quality has a positive effect on implementation of e-Procurement. Also, it has
been found that implementation of e-Procurement has a positive effect on firm performance.
Limitations: As the information was gathered entirely in Karachi, the results from a single
city are insufficient since the subject matter need a comprehensive investigation. In addition,
being a developing nation, Pakistan has comparatively less resources for doing research.
Implications: For improving the quality of information that impacts business
performance, the firms must train employees who work in e-procurement. Staff abilities are
one ofthe variables impacting the use of e-procurement.
