This paper provides an analysis of the impacts of ERP adoption in SMEs. According to this study, the incorporation of characteristics-related aspects would help to better explain ERP adoption, according to the same line of thinking. The subsections in this paper present a discussion of the factors and components as well as their postulated correlation with ERP adoption. The adoption of ERP in SMEs is critically evaluating using a model, which integrates the TOE (Technology-Organization-Environment) framework and they theory of organization information.
