This paper delves into the transformative role of big data in shaping managerial decision-making processes and driving performance improvements, specifically within the context of Jordan. With the exponential growth of data availability and technological advancements, businesses in Jordan are presented with unprecedented opportunities to harness big data analytics for informed decisions and strategic growth. Drawing upon a comprehensive literature review and empirical insights, this study elucidates the multifaceted ways in which big data influences managerial decision-making. By analyzing real-world examples from various sectors in Jordan, we highlight instances where big data has empowered executives to make informed choices, optimize resource allocation, and respond swiftly to market shifts. Furthermore, the paper examines the correlation between big data adoption and performance enhancement, shedding light on the mechanisms through which data-driven insights lead to operational efficiency, customer satisfaction, and competitive advantage. However, the integration of big data into managerial processes is not without challenges. This paper underscores the importance of addressing issues related to data privacy, security, infrastructure, and skill gaps. Despite these challenges, the potential for leveraging big data for managerial excellence in Jordan is undeniable. By advocating for a data-driven mindset and investing in the necessary technological capabilities, businesses can navigate the complexities and seize the untapped potential of big data. In conclusion, this paper underscores the critical role of big data in shaping managerial decision-making and performance enhancement within the unique landscape of Jordan.

Guided by a mixed-methods approach, the study employs both quantitative and qualitative analyses to uncover the intricate dynamics underpinning this monumental shift in the water sector landscape. Quantitative analysis reveals fluctuating decrease in water losses post-privatization, alongside an elevated level of customer satisfaction. Complementary qualitative insights corroborate these findings, shedding light on the enhanced reliability of water supply and the nuances of equity considerations in the privatization context. The alignment of research outcomes with existing literature, including the works of Gleick (2003), Smith (2007), and Johnson (2015), reinforces the theoretical and practical significance of this study. Equity emerges as a pivotal theme, beckoning robust regulatory frameworks to ensure equitable access, especially for marginalized communities. The synergy between infrastructure development and regulatory constructs stands as a testament to privatization's capacity to catalyze operational efficiency and innovation. Lessons from Jordan's experience are juxtaposed with global perspectives, offering comparative insights for policy formulation and future research directions. As the water sector navigates this transformative trajectory, this research holds pragmatic implications for policymakers, regulators, and stakeholders. The study extends the scholarly discourse on service quality within privatization narratives, contributing to both knowledge and the betterment of water services in Jordan and beyond. Introduction: Water scarcity is an escalating global challenge, particularly pronounced in regions characterized by arid climates and constrained water resources. The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, situated within the arid expanse of the Middle East, confronts the critical issue of water scarcity due to its geographical location and population growth. In pursuit of addressing this challenge and enhancing the provision of water services to its citizens, Jordan has embarked on a trajectory of water sector privatization. This study endeavors to comprehensively examine the multifaceted consequences of privatization on the quality of water services rendered to Jordanian citizens, offering insight into the achievements, hurdles, and ramifications of this transformative endeavor.
