Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the level of competitiveness of semiconductor design firms of Korea. The categories of competitiveness are divided into product development, accumulated technology, market-related competencies, human resources, and management system. The sample of 73 semiconductor design companies were used, and the analysis data were gathered by parallel with the questionnaire and the surveyor visited. For respondents, importance of competitiveness factor was prioritized using nominal scale and the competitiveness of each item is expressed based on 100 points. It was confirmed that there was a difference between the order of importance and the actual level of core competence. The ranking of the importance of core competencies is in the order of product development, technical capability, market-related competencies, human resources, and management system. However, in terms of actual competitiveness in each category, human resources were the best, followed by the management level. The product development and technology competencies were in order. The market-related competitiveness was found to be the most urgently raised. In order to increase the market related competitiveness, a new customer base must be developed and the information acquisition capability of the customer, and the ability to analyze their data needs to be improved.

본 연구는 반도체 설계전문기업의 경쟁력수준을 분석하는 데 초점을 맞추고 있다. 해당 기업의 경쟁력은 제품개발, 축적기술, 시장관련능력, 인적자원 그리고 경영시스템 등의 범주에서 분석하였다. 분석대상은 73개 기업으로 하였고, 이들 기업의 자료는 설문지 수거와 직접 응답방식을 병행하여 수집하였다. 설문은 명목척도를 활용하여 경쟁력 범주에 대한 중요도 순위와 경쟁력 범주별 세부항목의 수준(100점 기준)에 대하여 응답하도록 구성하였다. 분석결과, 중요하다고 인식하고 있는 경쟁력 범주와 실제 간에는 차이가 존재하고 있었다. 경쟁력 범주에 대한 중요도 인식순위는 제품개발, 축적기술, 시장관련능력, 인적자원 그리고 경영시스템 등으로 나타났다. 그러나 실제 현실적인 경쟁력 수준은 인적자원역량의 경쟁력이 가장 높았고, 그 다음으로 경영시스템, 제품개발 및 축적기술 등의 순으로 확인되었다. 가장 경쟁력이 취약한 범주는 시장관련역량으로, 이 범주의 경쟁력 제고(고객층 발굴, 시장 및 고객정보수집, 관련 정보분석 등)를 위한 노력이 더욱 필요하다고 볼 수 있다.
