The Mediating Role of Information Sharing in the Effect of Blockchain Strategy Information Security on E-Supply Chain in the UAE Real Estate Industry
摘要
To empirically analyse the adoption of the e-supply chain with blockchain strategy in the advanced technological era, it is essential to assess if the mediating role of information sharing supports the relationship in the real estate industry in the UAE. Implementation of Blockchain and E-supply chain with mediating effect of Information Sharing has never been considered investigated in previous research, specifically in the Real Estate Industry. A quantitative technique is used to obtain empirical evidence. The targeted population of the research is the employees working in 21 real estate companies based in Fujairah, UAE. A valid sample of 278 respondents was used for data analysis by regression and hypothesis testing. Blockchain technology is directly associated with the e-supply chain and information system. The indirect impact of Information sharing has also been significantly linked with blockchain and the e-supply chain. The E-supply chain adoption strategy has been considered a limitation in this research; however, exploring various aspects of the E-supply chain in the real estate industry while implementing a blockchain strategy is recommended. The real estate sector needs to recognise the value of blockchain technology and the E-supply chain adoption as it develops and reviews its current business models, procedures, and strategies to create transparent transactions and build up customer trust and business development.
