Abstract

With the rapid development and profound changes in the Chinese economy, the early stage growth patterns which largely depended on low labor costs are facing serious challenges. Small and medium manufacturing enterprises (SMEs) are upgrading management and service to improve productivity efficiency and market reaction speed. In this process, information technologies and systems inevitably play an important role. Based on a survey among 105 companies, we examined the competitive situation, status and trends of IT/IS application in Chinese SMEs. Starting with analyzing the competition environment, we investigated the current situation of IT/IS application with the “diffusion-infusion” framework and provide some discussion about future development.
