Şirketlerin rekabet gücünü belirleyen faktörlerden biri de bilgi teknolojisi yetenekleridir. Ancak, bu yetenek çalışanların bunları kullanma niyetiyle ilişkilidir. Liman otomasyon sistemlerini teknolojik yatırım olarak incelediğimizde konteyner terminallerinde yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır. Bu sebepten bu teknolojilerin kullanımında davranışsal niyet lojistik servis performansını etkileyebilecek önemli faktörlerden biridir. Bu çalışma, çalışanların teknoloji kullanımındaki davranışsal niyetinin limanların lojistik servis performansı üzerindeki etkisini ortaya çıkartmayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu bağlamda, liman otomasyon sistemlerini kullanan çalışanların davranışsal niyeti, Teknolojik Adaptasyon Modeli ile incelenmiştir

Employees Technology Usage Adaptation Impact on Companies’ Logistics Service Performance

Öz

The information technology IT capability of companies is one of the determinants of their competitive power. However, IT outputs depend on employees intentions to use them. As a technological investment Port automation systems are widely used in container terminals. Therefore behavioral intention in the usage of various IT applications is one of the important factors that may affect logistics service performance. This study aims to explore the employees' technology usage adaptation impact on the logistics service performance of ports. In this context, the behavioral intentions of employees who use port automation systems are investigated using the Technological Acceptance Model.
