Abstract

A discussion of current thinking on the role of information as a business resource for competitive advantage leads to the conclusion that consideration should be given by the textile industry to the adoption of strategies to harness such a valuable resource. A survey is reported of infomiation usage by ten textile companies in Scotland, all within the high-performance sector.It is demonstrated that an awareness is required of information as a strategic resource, and individual firms are recommended to consider information strategy as part of their corporate strategy.
