The findings show that information and communication technologies alone cannot produce sustainable advantages, but that firms must organize and manage information and communication technologies in such a way as to leverage the complementary human and business resources.

In this time period, organizations technology, its benefits are accessible to have invested large amount of time and all and cannot create competitive money to the adoption of ICTs.
This study advantage. The resource based view companies should reduce their ICT RBV is an appropriate framework to investment and innovation, which in turn guide this research due to its focus on could have profound implications for ICT resources and capabilities and also because governance.

As such, distinguish between those that have value value is significantly enhanced when and those that can be a source of resources are combined with other competitive advantage. The first condition organizational resources and capabilities value is necessary for the second Mata et al.

Ribadu reduce cost structures and increase aligning their information technology and revenues as seen in Table 1 above. Whereas, Frankin , Olalla , Schmid et. This can be translated in form of statistical hypotheses as: H0: IT investments have no impacts on performance of the organizations.
H1: IT investments have impacts on performance of the organizations. Time series data was available for these variables. Simple linear regression model was used taking IT expenses as independent and income as dependant variables. Summary of regression results are presented in Tables 3 a,b,c,d to 4 a,b,c,d and 5. Methodology There are two population groups for this research. One is the banking sector local and multinational and the other is large manufacturing organizations again both local and multinationals, which are making use of IT.
In the sample from these sectors 48 companies, 24 in banking sector 12 foreign, 12 local and 24 in manufacturing sector 12 foreign, 12 local were taken. List of sample companies is given in Annexure I. There are about 40 commercial banks operating in Pakistan.
Out of these 40 banks, 24 banks are included in the sample because of the reasons that many other banks are either set up in few years back or do not have well established network in Pakistan, therefore, they do not serve the purpose of this research.
There is no definite information available relating to the size of large manufacturing sector. It is estimated however that about large-scale manufacturing units are operating in Pakistan Saeed, Therefore, in the sample, from the manufacturing sector, a total of 24 big organizations were randomly included.
The sample size could have been increased but the nature of problem seems to be similar in each case. So the chosen sample size is considered to be sufficient. The companies selected are using latest IT and have well established IT set up. The participants in the study were the senior managers of finance, human resources, marketing and IT departments of the companies in sample. The data was collected from in-depth interviews using a structured close-ended questionnaire, and from official documents, financial statements detailing different aspects pertaining to the study.
In this research, the research problem has been analyzed for the period from to , because of the reasons that many companies operating in Pakistan were either not using IT before or IT had very little introduction and computers were being used merely as a word processing tools.
So it was difficult to measure any of significant IT impact on organizational performance before above period. Most of the companies initially declined to provide the required financial IT expenses and Income data citing confidentiality and busy schedules as reasons.
