This article presents findings of a study that aimed to identify key factors in the adoption of e-commerce. The study involved a bibliometric analysis of statistical information from 408 scientific publications related to the theme, registered in the Scopus database, through a structured search equation. The collected records were used to calculate bibliometric indicators of quantity, quality and structure. Additionally, an analysis of increasing, decreasing, and emerging thematics was carried out to identify the topics of greatest interest on this subject. Findings indicate that this is a prolific research field, in which the fastest growing topic is the study of e-commerce adoption in small and medium sized enterprises in emerging economies. The analysis also revealed the current use of new models to evaluate adoption factors. That is the case of the Technology Organization Environment Framework used as an alternative to the Technology Acceptance Model--which remains the most widely used. Likewise, Structural Equation Analysis was found to be one of the most frequently used options for statistical analysis in the publications studied. A research agenda intending to contribute with directions for further research in the area is presented at the end of the article. from previous studies, and allowing the construction of better research designs that could focus on the issue with greater theoretical end empirical validity.The paper is structured as follows: Drawing on the work of various authors, the first section presents a conceptual framework that elaborates on the most important concepts related to electronic commerce, points out some milestones in its historical development, highlights its importance, and exposes the factors that promote or inhibit its adoption. In a second section, the methodology used for bibliometric analysis is described. In a third section, the obtained results are laid out along with their interpretation. Finally, conclusions and limitations of the study are presented followed by a research agenda. Conceptual BackgroundThis section presents the conceptual framework that supports the bibliometric analysis used in the research methodology. This framework introduces the conceptualization of e-commerce, presents some milestones of development, and highlights its importance in strengthening supplier-customer relations in today's organizations.Electronic commerce has been defined as a useful tool to reduce the economic gap between countries [149] and as a channel to deliver products and services through the Internet. However, although it has become a source of competitive advantage due to the possibilities offered to both buyers and sellers, its use, especially in emerging economies, is limited [52]. The main advantage mentioned by the authors in the use of electronic commerce relates to the opportunity that it provides for companies to expand their number of customers [18] and its potential to become a medium to boost micro, small and medium sized enterprises--which represent a source of econ...

A actualy distribution system in electronic commerce is the e-Fulfillment. In the first part of the paper by presenting the concept and technological developments we have highlighted several classifications thereof. The biggest part presents the main operations are conducted at the operator e-Fulfillment, from taking products from suppliers, management, logistics, comparative analysis of classical storage and eFulfillment systems, some aspects of the advantages of using these systems, the costs involved and examples for Romania. The paper ends with some aspects of the consequences of the electronic trading and eFulfillment services development on human resources. 32 Efulfillment researchCurrently, online store administrators have the opportunity to outsource inventory management, ordering, billing, packing and parcel delivery through e-Fulfillment services. Therefore, starting from the operating mode, e-Fulfillment can be defined as a logistic service addressed to online stores for taking over their operations [2].The first in-depth research on fulfilment strategies was published by Mather (1988), where he discusses the relationship between production time P, that is, how long it takes to manufacture a product and time to complete demand C. Their sum represents the time that customers is willing to wait for the execution of the order, from the request addressed to the point of sale to the delivery of the product to the customer. Sometimes order fulfilment is used to more accurately describe the distribution act or logistics function, but in a broad sense it refers to how companies respond to customer orders.Currently, all companies are trying to permanently reduce this time, reducing being often considered a competitive advantage in front of competitors. In this context the operationalization of eFulfilment is a necessity and an advantage. E-fulfillment is the service by which an operator takes over the entire process of order fulfilment on behalf of an online store, from storage, to taking orders, packing and delivery or even website management, based on cloud management, reporting and order tracking. Basically, the order fulfilment time is greatly reduced by taking the goods on the efulfillment platform.In other words, e-fulfillment means the sum of the logistical processes by which a product ordered in an online store is packaged and delivered to the courier for delivery to the consumer.Considering the gradual increase of e-commerce sales and the increased interest for omni-channel (OC) e-Fulfillment trading, it is a powerful logistics system [5] and which allows the implementation of efficient and quality services [4].As for the benefits of implementing the eFulfillment system, they delimit a new stage in the development of e-commerce and the transition from traditional online merchants to those who implement a logistics system of "inventory matching on demand" [8].Thus, the main advantages for companies that use eFulfillment systems can be analysed from the perspective of the relationship between consumers a...
