Abstract

While Korea became one of manufacturing powers in the world through a fast-follower strategy as well as implementing the approach of advancing manufacturing business focused on quantitative input, The advent of the fourth industrial revolution and demand becoming more complicated than ever both require a system that quickly detects the change of markets in advance and reflects it in the manufacturing strategy. Accordingly, the introduction of a smart factory is not optional but mandatory in order to strengthen the competitiveness of manufacturing business using ICT. This paper aims to investigate key factors having influence on the intention to continuously use a smart factory, the innovative IT device, on the basis of the technology acceptance model. This paper analyzed the influence of the leadership of CEO, organizational learning and perceived switching costs on the intention to continuously use a smart factory by the parameters of perceived ease of use and usefulness, the major belief valuables of the IT acceptance model.

우리나라는 최근까지 양적투입 위주의 제조업 성장 방식을 취해왔을 뿐만 아니라 Fast-follower 전략으로 제조 강국 반열에 올라섰지만 선진국의 제조업 부흥 정책과 신흥국의 산업구조 고도화로 인해 한계에 직면하게 되었다. 최근 4차산업혁명의 도래와 수요의 복잡화로 인해 시장의 변화를 사전에 빠르게 감지해 생산전략에 반영하는 체제가 요구됨에 따라 ICT를 활용하여 제조업의 경쟁력 강화를 위해 스마트 팩토리를 도입은 선택이 아닌 필수가 되어가고 있다. 본 연구는 정보기술혁신 제품인 스마트 팩토리의 지속사용의도에 영향을 미치는 주요 요인들이 무엇인지를 기술수용모형을 토대로 살펴보고자 한다. 이를 위해 본 연구는 스마트 팩토리를 운영 중인 기업들을 대상으로 온라인과 오프라인으로 설문조사를 실시하였으며 122부의 표본으로 분석하였다. 구체적으로 CEO의 리더십, 조직학습, 지각된 전환비용이 기술수용모형의 주요 신념변수인 지각된 사용 용이성과 지각된 유용성을 매개하여 지속사용의도에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다.
