Abstract:

So as to be fast in communication, businesses share information about their products with their suppliers through technologies that they use. While using the information technologies, businesses share every information with relevant department and their suppliers. The aim of this research is to determine the effect of businesses' use of information technologies to supply chain agility. In accordance with this purpose, a questionnaire form was applied to a total of 196 businesses operating in Malatya 1st and 2nd Organized Industrial Zone. Accuracy Factor, One Way ANOVA, Pearson Correlation and Structural Equation Modeling Analysis tests were used in the analysis of the data in the research. As a result of the analysis of the data obtained in the study, it was seen that Supply Chain Agility was affected in a positive and significant way, and at a medium level. Similarly, it is seen that there is a sufficient level of compatibility with the Structural Equation Model established to determine whether the dimensions of Information Technology Use show a significant effect on Supply Chain Agility, and that the dimensions of "Communication Information Systems" and "Corporate Information Systems" have a significant effect on "Supply Chain Agility".
