Combined with cuts in institutional funding, executive leaders in higher education institutions (HEIs) in Malaysia and internationally have found it challenging to address these challenges effectively due to the dynamic and highly competitive education landscape.

The application of big data management (BDM) has been acknowledged as a potential solution to difficulties experienced in HEIs. So far, its adoption is relatively new, as there are currently numerous unknowns regarding its use.

The findings of the study based on a total of 171 valid survey collected showed that social influence and facilitating conditions have significant effects on behavioral intention for BDM adoption. Worth noting is the fact that TL this study’s results found no impact on the relationship between performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence variables and the behavioral intention.
