The Study population consisted of the professional employees working at the top, middle and lower level of the management i.e heads of sections, technologists, technicians and clerks of Kenya Breweries Limited in Nairobi. The target population included 528 employees and the sample size of the study was 85 respondents. Stratified sampling technique was used to determine the specific sample size of each strata of the study. Data was obtained through questionnaire. Data analysis was done through SPSS Version 24 and the analyzed data was presented in form of tables. The study found that technology integration, internal operations integration and customer integration significantly influence the performance of manufacturing firms in Kenya.
