| description |
Implementation of the Internet of Things (IoT) continues to drive change in
organisations and can bring unprecedented benefits for public sectors, which have a
critical role in serving the citizens. The IoT is a fundamental requirement for smart
government, which had been lauded to pioneer and innovate multiple ways for the
government in achieving better public engagement and increasing government
transparency. The success of IoT-based services depends on the utilisation of the system by the employees, along with technical and human factors, which play an important role in reducing resistance. Although IoT promises many benefits to public sectors, several existing challenges can be attributed to issues grounded on employee acceptance. Neglecting these issues may affect the implementation of IoT-based
services in public sectors, and thus, may affect the delivery of efficient services. Hence,
research is needed to achieve a better understanding of employee engagement to use
IoT-based services that includes the possible effects of technical and human factors to
the success of IoT in promoting successful implementation of IoT-based services within
the public sectors. To date, there has been little research that could be identified in
addressing these factors for successful IoT-based services implementation among
employees. Therefore, the present study aims to identify the factors that influence the
behaviour of employees in using IoT-based services and develop an integrated model
that address technical and human factors which impact the use of IoT-based services in public sectors from the perspective of employees. This model accounts for individual differences that influence the use of IoT-based services by including information system quality as the technical factors of specific aspects in the overall system, technology readiness, subjective norm, perceived usefulness, and user satisfaction,
which describe the human perceptions of the system. Additionally, IoT-based services
Use would be the outcome variable to determine the success of IoT. An integrated
success model for IoT-based services is developed by integrating the Technology
Readiness Index, Technology Acceptance Model and the modified success model of
DeLone and McLean. This study employed a quantitative, cross-sectional survey that
involves employees from all local authorities throughout Malaysia. A total of 187
responses were received from employees from Local Agencies in public sectors with
67.3 per cent response rate. The partial least squares structural equation modelling
approach is used to test the model, with 90.8 per cent of the variance in IoT-based
services are used, suggesting an acceptable model fit with 7 out of 9 hypotheses being
met. Specifically, technology readiness has the strongest effect on IS quality (β =
0.746), and the strongest effect size has been obtained on the association between
subjective norm and perceived usefulness (β = 0.433). In addition, information system
quality has the strongest effect on perceived usefulness (β = 0.498) and medium effect
on user satisfaction (β = 0.490). Thus, the empirical evidence exerts significant effects
of technology readiness towards the success of IoT-based facilities management in the
public sector. From a practical contribution viewpoint, this research provides actionable
information for the government to formulate a successful implementation strategy for
IoTbs in FM. |
