Abstract

This paper offers a comprehensive exploration of the evolution, adoption, and strategic implementation of AIS in modern enterprises. Beginning with an overview of the historical development of AIS, this paper traces its evolution from manual accounting processes to sophisticated digital systems. It examines the key technological innovations and theoretical frameworks that have shaped the field, highlighting the transition from standalone systems to integrated enterprise resource planning (ERP) solutions. The paper then delves into the factors influencing the adoption of AIS in modern enterprises. It explores the strategic considerations, organizational dynamics, and regulatory requirements that drive the decision to implement AIS. Additionally, it discusses the challenges and barriers to adoption, such as cost concerns, resistance to change, and cybersecurity risks. It highlights the need for ongoing innovation, collaboration, and adaptation to harness the full potential of AIS in a rapidly evolving business environment.
