Summary: | Data from a questionnaire survey covering 149 electronics and electrical
manufacturing companies in Malaysia are used to identify the factors
influencing the design and use of performance measurement systems
(PMSs). Factor analysis identified organizations’ contextual factors as
potential contingency variables that include: (1) two dimensions of
organisational profile—company size and ownership types; (2) four
dimensions of organisational culture—knowledge and innovation,
learning culture, absorptive capability and employee’s understanding
and learning; (3) four dimensions of organisation strategy—stakeholder
focus, pricing and distribution, marketing segmentation and growth;
and (4) four dimensions of technology—information technology and
customisation, volume and variety of product and process, information
and technological advancement, and product complexity. |
