For achieving a higher value about operating activities, firms must emphasis on R&D and technological development to integrate customer needs and develop the capabilities for searching and acquiring information via e-Business tools. In this context, electronic market orientation is regarded as a strategic weapon for firms to support their outcomes. Given the important issue for electronic market orientation, this present research tried to develop an electronic market orientation (EMO) scale. Following the rigor procedure for scale development, reliability, exploratory factor analysis, and confirmation factor analysis will be used to construct the instrument. According to the empirical data collected from companies in Taiwan, finally, a revision containing 23 items for measuring electronic market orientation is generated. The measurement scale contains of 3 constructs, namely responsive market orientation, proactive market orientation, and system integration.
