| dc.description.abstract | The implementation of integrated information systems has the potential to improve the operational efficiency and overall commercial performance of supply chain organizations. There exists a dearth of scholarly investigations pertaining to the involvement of information technology (it) in the domain of green supply chain management (gscm). The objective of this study is to assess the impact of information technology capabilities on green supply chain management (gscm). The primary objective of this study is to investigate the mediating influence of business reputation on the association between it skills and green supply chain management in emerging nations. This study seeks to investigate the influence of it capabilities and green supply chain management performance on manufacturing enterprises in Ghana, utilizing a quantitative research methodology. The research had a sample size of 193 individuals who were surveyed via a census methodology. The research is centered around the acquisition of data from manufacturing enterprises located in Ghana. The collection of primary data was carried out through the use of a standardized questionnaire. The findings indicate a notable and statistically significant correlation between it skills and the performance of green supply chain management. The influence of corporate reputation on the performance of green supply chain management is both considerable and statistically supported. Additionally, corporate reputation acts as a partial mediator in the beneficial association between it capabilities and green supply chain management performance. This suggests that the performance of green supply chain management (gscm) is influenced by the capabilities of information technology (it), and the relationship between them is further reinforced by the presence of a strong corporate reputation. In order to enhance the efficiency of their green supply chain operations, it is imperative for organizations to give equal importance to technology improvements as well as reputation management. | |
