| description | Decision based big data analytics (BDA) has created countless opportunities and
challenges for the Malaysian Public Sector. In order to be innovative, the government
organizations need to adopt effective ways of decision-making. One such strategy is
by understanding and recognizing the enabling factors that contribute to the success
of BDA implementation. In this regard, this study explores the effects of
organizational, talent and technology resources as the factors affecting successful
BDA implementation. This study was developed based on Resource-Based View
(RBV) and DeLone & McLean Information Systems Success Model (ISSM) theories.
Systematic literature review was conducted to identify the factors affecting successful
BDA implementation and to find the research gaps. In this study, a BDA
implementation model named BDI model, is proposed. Existing literatures were
synthesized and critically analysed which were then became the basis of the model
development. A panel of experts was selected to verify the research model and
questionnaire design. Data from the expert opinions was analysed by using I-CVI and
Kappa analysis. To gain the reliability and validity of items from the revised
questionnaires, a pilot study was conducted. Data collected from pilot study was
analysed by using Rasch Measurement Model. An empirical study was then performed
by administering the instrument to 140 big data practitioners in selected Malaysian
Public Sectors through a drop-off survey method. SPSS software was used for
descriptive analysis, while PLS-SEM was used for statistical analysis in which eleven
hypothesis were tested empirically. The results indicate that resource commitment,
analytics skills and managerial skills factors are not significant on BDA
implementation, while the rest of the influencing factors such as big data strategy,
analytics culture, top management support, data infrastructures, information
processing and information quality are statistically significant. In addition, the
relationship between analytics culture and BDA implementation is improved by
introducing the moderating role of top management support. The revised BDI model
was then validated further by the experts using a developed prototype. A usability test with big data users was conducted to assess the feasibility and applicability of the
prototype in the field. Based on the expert evaluation and usability testing, the
prototype is believed to be able to assist decision-makers understand the key
determinants and address the issue on the lack of resources that must be considered
during BDA implementation. It is also believed that organizational decision making
and future strategic planning can be improved by providing significant information on
the strength and shortcomings of the affecting factors on successful BDA implementation. |
