Abstract

SMEs differ from large firms in terms of environmental uncertainty, dependency, centralization, specialization, strategy, systems, resources and flexibility. Because of these distinguishing characteristics, the results of research carried out in large firms cannot be transferred directly to small firms. This is particularly true of the critical success factors for change management and technology implementation. Generally, SMEs tend to adopt new technologies after large firms. The case study in Turkey, represents the change management activities on ERP implementation by a consultancy firm (ABH) on an international corporation’s Turkey located SME.
