Acceptance of Intelligent Ticketing Systems in Developing Countries

Abstract

Information communication technologies bring the revolution into all business sectors, and transportation sector is not an exception. Ticketing system has changed from traditional to intelligent, which provides information and service to the consumer. In developed countries such systems are implemented and operate successfully, while in the developing countries electronic ticketing and other similar innovative solutions face specific challenges. These challenges are related to information era and changes in consumer behaviour, caused by the development of information and communication technologies. In these new conditions the motives of consumers to choose electronic ticketing has become an extremely important factor of success. Lack of integrity of consumer behaviour and technology acceptance (electronic ticketing in particular) was identified in previous scientific research, especially taking into consideration recent conditions of developing countries. The aim of this article is to evaluate the consumers' behaviour and acceptance of intelligent systems, such as electronic ticketing, in order to identify factors, influencing and encouraging the customers to use electronic ticketing systems. In this study extended technology acceptance model with trust element was used to measure the consumer behaviour. The sample for this research has been taken from China and Pakistan populations and consists of 432 participants from both countries.

Transforming Supply Chains: Powering Circular Economy with Analytics, Integration and Flexibility Using Dual Theory and Deep Learning with PLS-SEM-ANN Analysis

“…While big data analytics applies to various domains, supply chain analytics focuses explicitly on supply chain data, which indicates that supply chain analytics is more suitable in supply chain studies, both leveraging statistical tools and modeling techniques to enable data-driven decision making for organizations. Implementing advanced information technologies and systems enables organizations to make their processes more integrated, gain a competitive edge, and become efficient in improving organizational performance [12,[77][78][79][80]. Supply chain scholars have focused on the SCA as the essential factor in gaining a competitive advantage [81][82][83].…”

Evaluating Organizational Characteristics Complementary With Enterprise Software Products

“…The enterprise software pre-configured products that most often support business related tasks and processes are Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Supplay Chain Management (SCM), Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Business Intelligence (BI), and Big Data Analytics (BDA) (Gronwald, 2017). The international literature describes two general approaches which managers can use for a successful implementation, deployment and maintenance of enterprise software products (Markus & Tanis, 2000;Shafique et al, 2019;Davidavičienė et al, 2018). First approach is based on the internal re-deployment of the managerial practices that are already used to manage other fields in the enterprise.…”
