The factors were information technology capability (IT capability), NPD strategy, NPD process and top management support (TMS). To test the framework of the study, a quantitative approach using questionnaire method was used. 175 questionnaires were distributed to vendors located in Malaysia. 90 questionnaires were returned and could be used for the analysis of data.
