摘要
This paper analyzes the causal factors of the level of electronic commerce adoption (ECA) among Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). Contingent Theory is used as the basis for building a structural equation model. The model assigns a mediating role to the 'ICT strategy and management control' variable. The study is based on a survey of 139 MSMEs from Cordoba, Argentina. Results show that the mediating variable positively affects ECA, and therefore, the organizational performance. Besides this, the e-readiness of a firm directly and indirectly influences ECA. (C) 2016 Universidad ICESI. Published by Elsevier Espana, S.L.U.
