“…Asamoah et al's measurement model results support the relevance of the constructs in Karimi et al (2007a) in the SSA context, but the structural model was relatively poor in the SSA context, which suggests the need to examine a modified model in the new context (Asamoah, 2014;Mbarika et al, 2005;McDade & Spring, 2005). The study we present here examines the influence of contextual variables in understanding relationships between extent of ERP implementation and business process outcomes (Asamoah, 2015;Karimi et al, 2007a). Appendix 1 contains the constructs we used in this study, the type of construct (formative or reflective), the items we used to measure the constructs, and where we adapted them from.…”

“…After conducting a replication study in Ghana, Asamoah et al (2015) suggest that absence of the contextual variables may explain the differences in structural models between their own and Karimi et al's (2007a) findings. Asamoah et al's measurement model results support the relevance of the constructs in Karimi et al (2007a) in the SSA context, but the structural model was relatively poor in the SSA context, which suggests the need to examine a modified model in the new context (Asamoah, 2014;Mbarika et al, 2005;McDade & Spring, 2005).…”

“…We conducted this research with data that we collected from Ghana, a SSA nation. We identified data-driven culture as the antecedent (Asamoah, 2015). Further, the extent of ERP implementation influenced organizational integration, ethical behavior, and BPO.…”

“…However, with recent economic growth in many Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) nations, ERP vendors have found these economies to be key markets, which has resulted in a rise in ERP systems implementation in this region (Bailey et al, 2017). Asamoah, Andoh-Baidoo, and Agyei-Owusu (2015) replicated Karimi, Somers, and Bhattacherjee's (2007a) study on the relationship between extent of ERP implementation and business process outcomes in a SSA nation. They found consistent measurement models but different structural models between the two studies.…”

Abstract:Most research on the impact of enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems implementation on business process outcomes have focused on developed nations. However, Sub-Saharan Africa, a developing region, is a growing ERP market and provides a new context for theory development. We examine the antecedent and outcomes of extent of ERP systems implementation in Sub-Saharan Africa. Specifically, we examine three research questions: 1) "How does an organization's data culture influence the extent of ERP implementation?", 2) "How does the extent of ERP implementation influence the ethical behavior and data integration of the organization?", and 3) "How do ethical behavior and organizational integration influence the business process outcomes?". We used the panoptic concept as a theoretical lens to develop a research model and six hypotheses to answer the research questions. We tested the model by using the survey methodology to collect data from 115 firms that have implemented ERP systems and operated in 13 industries in Ghana, a Sub-Saharan Africa nation. We used structural equation modeling to analyze the data. We found support for all six hypotheses. We offer both theoretical and managerial implications.

“…To understand the impact that has ERP implementation on the process outcome in subSaharan African context, Asamoah et al (2015) replicate a study made in the US within the context of Ghana. Contrary to the previous study, there were no relationship between the implementation extent and the process outcome in the Ghanaian context.…”

This paper is a literature review of articles published in various journals and conference proceedings, dealing with the topic of the implementation of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) within African countries. It intends to help researchers interested in the topic by showing the problems that have been addressed in the research. This work also highlights open issues that can be tackled in future research in the development of African countries driven by ERP. Conferences and journals that are interested in the implementation of ERP within African countries have been identified. The paper also discusses whether the implementation of ERP is an important topic or a market place in the African continent. Based on the salient information gathered throughout this paper review, this work draws some recommendations that will contribute to the successful implementation of ERP within African countries. These recommendations go from the awareness of existing problems and solutions, the life cycle used in the implementation of ERP, to the successful implementation of ERP by avoiding failures that are linked to the African context.

Inter-Organizational Systems (IOS), which are information systems that extend beyond organizational borders, have seen growing use in linking companies to their supply chain partners. This paper empirically explores the relationship between IOS use, Supply Chain Capabilities, and Supply Chain Performance. The research model proposes that IOS use directly enhances Supply Chain Performance, and indirectly enhances Supply Chain Performance through Supply Chain Capabilities. To test the model, a survey of 200 firms operating in Ghana that use IOS was conducted. Analysis of the model was conducted using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling techniques.
