Empirical Investigation of the Effect of Corporate Cultural Factors on the Data Warehousing Success

摘要

This study aims at identifying the impact of corporate cultural factors on successful development of data warehousing in the United Arab Emirates. Five hundred and eighty DW users in 34 companies were surveyed to obtain their perceptions of the extent that each of 132 items had actually contributed to their firms' DW success. Rigorous multivariate statistical analysis procedure has been followed to design and construct an overall model of DW success. The model has proven that all its independent variables have significant influence on the DW overall success and that corporate cultural factors have dominant impact on this success throughout the different phases of DW development.
