Summary: | Although the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)
system has long been acknowledged in higher education
institutions (HEIs) to improve their performance and efficiency,
there are not many HEIs in Egypt that adopt ERP system and
those that do are in an early stage. The research on ERP system
in HEI is still limited and in the immature stage, hence little is
known about the success factors for the adoption stage of ERP
systems. Consequently, this article aims to understand what are
the success factors for ERP adoption and further develop a
conceptual model that explains the successful implementation of
ERP in HEIs and its impact on competitive advantage. Based on
previous studies, this paper identifies and conceptualizes success
factors for ERP and further develops the proposed model for the
adoption of ERP system in HEIs. This article contributes to the
development of the theoretical framework of the successful
implementation of the ERP system to explain the competitive
advantage of HEI by merging information system (IS) success
and diffusion of innovation (DOI) theories with the success
factors for the adoption stage of ERP systems. The current study
will provide recommendations and guidelines for both the
potential adopters and the vendors on the successful ERP system
adoption. |
