Abstract

This paper aims to examine the linkage between company size, strategic alignment, employee training, and technological infrastructure within Algerian firms. A questionnaire was prepared and distributed. A descriptive method and multiple regression were used to analyze and interpret the results. Results show that in the Algerian firms, the technological infrastructure is determined by the company size. Strategic alignment and employee training explain the technological infrastructure availability, but they have no critical significance than company size factors.
