Influence of Information Technology Infrastructure on the Growth of Kenya Revenue Authority

Abstract: The Kenya Revenue Authority introduced the management system for contact centers and customer relationship management in 2017 to enhance service provision by offering a detailed perspective of the customer. However, the anticipated increase has not materialized, as the collection of tax revenue has repeatedly fallen below projections. There is a growing anxiety based on the gap between those entitled to pay taxes and the total of persons truly paying within the country. Therefore, this study sought to examine the influence of information technology infrastructure on the growth of Kenya Revenue Authority. A descriptive design was applied.

The content validity assessment was adopted for validating the tool. To check the internal consistency and reliability of the survey questions, a Cronbach’s alpha coefficient test was performed, yielding a correlation coefficient of 0.779, indicating the reliability of the questionnaire items. The quantitative data analysis included descriptive statistics. Moreover, the implementation of inferential statistical analyses was adhered to express how each variable had related with the other with findings displayed in tables. The observation from the study was that the information technology infrastructure (β=0.0415, t=5.949, p=0.002), resulted to significant influence on the growth of the company.
