Resumo: The introduction of Information and Communication Technologies has brought about a change in company behaviour. This change has proved to be of particular importance in the tourism sector, due to its own peculiarities. This work examines how the development of new technologies has affected the way in which tourism enterprises compete and develop their tasks. In addition our work tests empirically the impact that the development of information technologies inside the enterprise has on the explanation of firm performance. In order to achieve this aim we use a questionnaire addressed to hospitality managers, and Structural Equations Modelling methodology. The study highlights the benefits associated with the use of IT, together with possible formulae to improve the managerial task.

Este impacto es especialmente importante en el sector turístico, por las propias peculiaridades del sector. Con el presente trabajo queremos investigarcómo el desarrollo de las nuevas tecnologías ha afectado el modo en el cual las empresas turísticas compiten y desarrollan sus tareas. A su vez, analizamos empíricamente el peso directo que tiene en los resultados empresariales el uso y desarrollo de las tecnologías de información y las comunicaciones. Para ello vamos a utilizar un cuestionario dirigido a directivos hoteleros y la metodología de ecuaciones estructurales. El estudio plantea los beneficios asociados al uso de las Tecnologías de Información y Comunicaciones y su impacto en la mejora de la acción empresarial.
