Abstract
Electronic data interchange (EDI) has been increasingly adopted in Korean industries to facilitate their online transactions with customers and suppliers. We investigate organizational factors affecting successful implementation of EDI in current Korean industries. Regression models are developed and tested using survey results from 110 Korean companies that have been using EDI.
