Information Communication Technology Adoption and Service Delivery by Microfinance Institutions in Nandi County: A Case Study of Juhudi Kilimo Limited

The Study Aimed To Investigate The Factors Affecting The Adoption Of Information Communication Technology In Service Delivery By Microfinance Institutions In Nandi County With Juhudi Kilimo Limited As The Main Point Of Focus. The Investigation Aimed To: Examine Whether Ict Illiteracy Affects Service Delivery By Microfinance Institutions In Nandi County, Find Out How Technological Infrastructure Has An Effect On Service Delivery By Microfinance Institutions In Nandi County, Ascertain How The Cost Of Adoption Has An Effect On Service Delivery By Microfinance Institutions In Nandi County, And Examine How Perceived Usefulness Has An Effect On Service Delivery By Microfinance Institutions In Nandi County. The Research Considered A Population Of 200 Employees And Clients Of Juhudi Kilimo In Nandi County. The Study Employed A Simple Random Sampling Technique. The Technology Acceptance Theory Constituted The Foundations Of The Research. The Research Employs A Descriptive Design To Examine The Characteristics Of The Target Population, Consisting Of It Officers, Finance Officers, Operations Officers, Research And Development Officers, Internal Auditors, And Clients Of Juhudi Kilimo. A Representative Sample Of 60 Respondents Was Selected Randomly. Data Collection Involved Questionnaires, Validated Through A Pilot Study And Expert Evaluation. The Research Also Provided A Robust Framework For The Study, Ensuring Methodological Rigor And Ethical Adherence In Investigating Ict Adoption's Impact On Mfi Service Delivery. The Study Revealed Strong Positive Correlations Between Ict Illiteracy And Adoption Costs (0.983), Technological Infrastructure (0.310), And Perceived Usefulness (0.459). Technological Infrastructure Demonstrated A Strong Positive Correlation With Perceived Usefulness (0.751) And A Moderate Positive Correlation With Adoption Costs (0.652). Adoption Costs Exhibited Strong Positive Correlations With Both Ict Illiteracy (0.983) And Technological Infrastructure (0.995). Perceived Usefulness Showed A Moderate Positive Correlation With Ict Illiteracy (0.459) And Strong Positive Correlations With Both Technological Infrastructure (0.978) And Adoption Costs (0.959).

Abstract

The Study Aimed To Investigate The Factors Affecting The Adoption Of Information Communication Technology In Service Delivery By Microfinance Institutions In Nandi County With Juhudi Kilimo Limited As The Main Point Of Focus. The Investigation Aimed To: Examine Whether Ict Illiteracy Affects Service Delivery By Microfinance Institutions In Nandi County, Find Out How Technological Infrastructure Has An Effect On Service Delivery By Microfinance Institutions In Nandi County, Ascertain How The Cost Of Adoption Has An Effect On Service Delivery By Microfinance Institutions In Nandi County, And Examine How Perceived Usefulness Has An Effect On Service Delivery By Microfinance Institutions In Nandi County. The Research Considered A Population Of 200 Employees And Clients Of Juhudi Kilimo In Nandi County. The Study Employed A Simple Random Sampling Technique. The Technology Acceptance Theory Constituted The Foundations Of The Research. The Research Employs A Descriptive Design To Examine The Characteristics Of The Target Population, Consisting Of It Officers, Finance Officers, Operations Officers, Research And Development Officers, Internal Auditors, And Clients Of Juhudi Kilimo. A Representative Sample Of 60 Respondents Was Selected Randomly. Data Collection Involved Questionnaires, Validated Through A Pilot Study And Expert Evaluation. The Research Also Provided A Robust Framework For The Study, Ensuring Methodological Rigor And Ethical Adherence In Investigating Ict Adoption's Impact On Mfi Service Delivery. The Study Revealed Strong Positive Correlations Between Ict Illiteracy And Adoption Costs (0.983), Technological Infrastructure (0.310), And Perceived Usefulness (0.459).
