“…Likewise, when managers have a higher level of education, a firm will be more interested in implementing e-business (Rodríguez-Ardura, Meseguer-Artola & Vilaseca-Requena, 2007). Furthermore, given that the qualities of those in charge of the firm have a bearing on their management performance, it should be noted that those firms whose managers have a higher level of education are the ones that make greater use of e-business systems (Vilaseca., Torrent, Meseguer & Rodríguez, 2007).…”

Abstract:Purpose: To describe the factors that facilitate the adoption of e-business in firms. To go in deep on the factors, resources and capabilities that need to be present in those firms seeking to improve their levels of e-business adoption.Design/methodology/approach: Analysis of the literature involving the main theories on business administration, and more specifically, on those related to technology innovation (TI) and information systems (IS), as applicable to the organizational factors that explain the adoption of e-business.Findings: It identifies three main sources of influence: a first group covers the characteristics of the actual firm, which refer to the organisation's specific features: firm size, the backing of top management, expected benefit, age, the level of human capital, and international projection. A second group of factors includes technology-related characteristics. The third group contains all those aspects in the environment that may affect the firm's attitude to e-business. Research limitations/implications:The chosen variables play significant role following a review of the studies on the subject, but not all potential ones have been included. The variables have been chosen in view of the large number of studies that have reported conclusive results.-547-Journal of Industrial Engineering and Management -http://dx

The business sector has been included, considering that the particularities of each sector can influence in the decision making in a firm (Mcfarlane et al, 2003;Henderson et al, 2005;Baer & Brown, 2006;Mishra & Williams, 2006;Vilaseca et al, 2007a;Corrocher, 2011).

Currently, the use of websites in the firms of the Spanish agrifood sector has not become widespread despite the possible benefits to be derived from their adequate integration and management within the firms. Among these advantages, the increase in the quality of the services offered and the improvement in the relations with their stakeholders should be highlighted. In this context, the objective of the present work is to determine to what extent websites are used by firms in the agrifood sector of Spain, analysing the background which explains why they are adopted and the consequences of introducing them. To do so, a theoretical framework is posed which allows these factors to be identified, and an empirical study is carried out with Spanish agrifood firms. The results of the work indicate that the adoption of websites will be favoured when the directors of the firm are higher qualified, the firm is bigger in size, the firm's function is distribution, and when the relative advantage and technology compatibility is perceived, among others. Technology adoption consequences analysis suggests that the benefits of adoption are related with improving the relationships with suppliers, customers, owning partners and, in general, the quality of the services offered by the firm.
