Today’s business environment is very dynamic and undergoes rapid changes as a result of technological innovation, increased awareness and demands from customers.
Business organizations, especially the banking industry of the 21st century operates in a complex and competitive environment characterized by these changing conditions and highly unpredictable economic climate. Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is at the centre of this global change curve. Laudon and Laudon, (1991) contend that managers cannot ignore information systems because they play a critical role in contemporary organization they point out that the entire cash flow of most fortune 500 companies is linked to information system. The application of information technology concepts, techniques, policies and implementation strategies to banking services has become a subject of fundamental importance and concerns to all banks and indeed a prerequisite for local and global competitiveness. Information Technology directly affects how manager decide, how they plan and what products and services are offered in the banking industry.
It has continued to change the way banks and their corporate relationships are organized worldwide and the variety of innovative devices available to enhance the speed and quality of service delivery. Harold and Jeff (1995) contend that financial service providers should modify their traditional operating practices to remain viable in the 1990s and the decades that follow. They claim that the most significant shortcoming in the banking industry today is a wide spread failure on the part of senior management in banks to grasp the importance of technology and incorporate into their strategies plans accordingly. Woherem (2000) claimed that only banks that overhaul the whole of their payment and delivery systems and only apply information technology to their operations are likely to survive and prosper in the new millennium. He advices banks to re-examine their service and delivery systems in order to properly position them within the framework of the dictates of the dynamism of Information and Communication Technology.
