Abstract :
This paper presents an activity based model for the adoption of technology in emergency management. Furthermore, multiple case study has been employed as a research method to validate the proposed conceptual model. The empirical findings from multiple case studies are also reported in this paper. It is hoped that our research findings will better inform researchers in the field and facilitate organizations in adopting technology for emergency management.
