Determinants to blockchain technology adoption: a survey in Vietnam construction enterprises

In recent years, blockchain technology has demonstrated significant potential benefits for the construction industry, yet its adoption remains limited. This study investigates the determinants influencing blockchain adoption within construction organizations in Vietnam. The research combined Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and Technology–Organization–Environment (TOE) framework to identify and organize determinants into latent constructs including technology, organization and environment dimensions. A questionnaire was developed to collect data from 122 construction practitioners, the model was then empirically tested and validated through using structural equation modeling (SEM). The results indicate that technological factors significantly affect users' perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use regarding blockchain technology. In contrast, organizational and environmental factors do exhibit no significant impact on perceived ease of use. Moreover, perceived usefulness emerges as a critical determinant of user acceptance of blockchain technology. Collectively, these insights contribute to valuable data to develop a roadmap for promoting blockchain implementation in the Vietnamese construction industry
