Abstract

Management Support is crucial to survival and success of organizations where managers are decision makers of the adoption of Computer Integrated Model (CIM) that is intended to contribute to the performance or effectiveness of the adopting organizations. Management support is the attitude and commitment of managers towards CIM technology adoption. This paper sought to establish the extent to which management support readiness determines adoption of CIM in financial forecasting of Small and Medium enterprises in Kisumu East District. This study was guided by a conceptual framework which indicated determinants of adopting CIM in financial forecasting. The study adopted descriptive survey methodology with both quantitative and qualitative approaches to source and analyze data. The finding established that managerial support readiness is key in adopting Computer Integration Model in financial forecasting amongst other determinant factors of adoption of CIM.
