Examining the Moderating Effects of Time-Since-Adoption on the Nexus Between Business Intelligence Systems and Organisational Performance: The Ghanaian Banks Perspectives

摘要

This article investigates the post-adoption impacts of business intelligence (BI) systems on organisational performance of Ghanaian banks through the lens of the balanced scorecard. It also examines if time-since-adoption moderates the hypothesized relationship between BI systems adoption and the banks' organizational performance. A survey data of 130 Ghanaian bank officials was analysed through a partial least square structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) approach to examine the relationship among the study constructs. The results indicated that BI Systems indeed impacted significantly on Ghanaian banks' organisational performance by improving employee learning and growth, enhancing their internal business processes and improving their customer management performances. Nonetheless, BI Systems did not have a direct significant effect on the banks financial performance. Moreover, the findings show that there is no significant difference between early-adopters and late-adopters in terms of BI Systems impacts on the banks' organisational performance. Other implications are also discussed.
