Sampling frame of the study was a list of all those manager level employees who works in ADPLC NMTS. The data in the study were collected from 40 managerial level permanent employees who work in ADPLC NMTS who are relevant to the study. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics with the aid of SPSS version 26. Multiple linear regression models were used to explain the nature of the relationship between dependent and independent factors in the study. The reliability coefficient of 0.800 was computed using Cronbach Alpha formula to measure the internal consistency of the entire questionnaire items. The results of the study suggest that all variables have a significant relationship with organizational performance. The regression analysis result of the study indicated that 91.5% of the variation on the organizational performance can be explained by the composite measure of system development, digital tools and services, information technology-based innovations and interdepartmental process integrations. The study recommended that ADPLC Nazmed medical textiles should effectively implement the determinants such as system development, digital tools and services, information technology-based innovations and interdepartmental process integrations to increase and improve organizational performance.
