Abstract:

 The adoption and utilization of information and communication technologies (ICTs) have reshaped the economic landscape of different economic sectors in many nations; thus, assessing the extent to which ICTs have been adopted and used in the Nigerian manufacturing sector is imperative for stakeholders in the sector. Based on the survey data that was gathered among 454 manufacturing firms in different industries, the study offers an empirical insight into the actual situation of ICTs implementation in the Nigerian manufacturing industry. The results demonstrated that there were different levels of ICTs adoption, with the bigger firms showing more levels of technology integration relative to the smaller firms. Additionally, the findings determine the effect of the implementation of various ICTs solutions, such as enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, automation technologies, and data analytics tools, on major operational measures such as production efficiency, supply chain management, and workforce productivity. The study offers implications to both manufacturers and policymakers in the sense that it is necessary to promote more ICTs innovations to improve the competitiveness and development of the industrial sector in Nigeria.'.
