Utilization of IT in Pakistan and MNC Pharma. Companies in the Korangi Industrial Area

This research explores the extent of usage of Informational Technology within the pharmaceutical firms based at Korangi Industrial Area. The findings substantiate the view that merely adding computing power will not add to productivity unless theemployees are well trained and the usage is dispersed in all the business processes simultaneously. The design of the research is based on instruments which have a high validity and the results show that there is no significant difference in the level of competence of employees between the Pakistani and the MNC. This may be so since the employees are from the same labour market where they have similar educational background and the firms (both national and multinational) have not adequately invested in up grading their IT capabilities..
