An IT system within a company play increasingly important role as a significant part of corporate assets. The IT system possesses an extraordinary ability to improve an organization's efficiency, effectiveness and productivity by providing competitive advantages and improving strategic business decision capabilities. Indeed, providing a more secure IT environment, improving employee productivity and enhancing business process and strategic decision capabilities are key areas to improve corporate performance. However, existing research on IT ROI of return on IT investments does not provide solid justification to stakeholders. In this paper, we analyze the IT investment during the past 28 years from 1982 to 2009 and present the results in two dimensions. First, we show the IT solution implementation analysis by years and industries based on 1,240 IT success cases from 8 different sources such as major Korea IT newspaper, IT magazines, and IT vendors. Then, the paper presents the relationship between IT capability through IT success cases and corporate business performance among 32 industries.

정보기술의 비즈니스 가치는 수십 년 동안 실무자와 학자, 모두에게 최고의 관심사 중 하나가 되어왔다. 정보기술은 일반적으로 기업 민첩성의 원동력 혹은 성공요인으로 고려된다. 이에 대한 보편적인 전제는 IT 투자에 상당한 노력을 하는 기업은 보다 민첩할 수 있다는 사실이다. 더욱이 최근 환경의 불안전성이 상승함에 따라 기업은 시장 기반의 위협과 기회를 파악하고 대응하기 위해 보다 더 민첩하게 하는 방법을 요구한다. 하지만 기업의 전략을 돕는 IT는 때때로 비즈니스에 방해가 되거나 조직의 민첩함을 지체시키기도 하는 일이 심심찮게 발생되곤 한다. 즉 IT가 민첩성에 도움이 되거나 지장을 주는지에 대한 여부는 아직까지도 해결되지 않은 과제로 남아있다. 따라서 본 연구는 IT와 민첩성간의 촉진과 저해의 상반되는 측면이 빈번하게 관찰되고 있다는 점을 지적하고 이들 간의 관계에 대해 이론화를 시도하고자 하였다. 다시 말하면, 기업이 민첩성을 실현하기 위해서는 그들이 성공적으로 IT 자원을 관리하는 기업 전반의 우수한 IT 능력 개발이 필요하다는 근거를 제시하고자 한다. 본 연구는 IT 능력에 대해 기술적 IT 능력과 관리적 IT 능력, 두 가지의 변수로 개념화하였으며, 기업 민첩성의 운영 조정 및 시장 자본화의 두 가지 유형을 정의하였다. 기업을 대상으로 수집된 171부의 데이터를 PLS 접근 방식에 따라 분석한 결과, 기술적 IT 능력은 기업 민첩성에 긍정적인 영향을 미치고 관리적 IT 능력은 기술적 IT 능력과 기업 민첩성 사이에서 강화된 조절효과가 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 또한 주도적인 경영진의 존재가 있다면 민첩성에서 나아가 기업의 성과를 실현하기 까지 그 영향이 증가된다는 것도 볼 수 있었다. 마지막으로 기업 민첩성은 기업 성과에 중요한 원인변수라는 사실이 밝혀졌다. 본 연구의 결과는 민첩성에 대한 IT의 모순된 효과가 발생되고 있지만 이에 적용 가능한 해결책을 제시하고, IT 능력과 기업 민첩성과의 관계에 있어 보다 정교하고 현실적으로 이해할 수 있는 실증적증거를 제공할 수 있다. 뿐만 아니라 상대적으로 초기단계에 있는 민첩성 관련 연구와 기업 실무자들에게 많은 유용한 시사점을 제안할 수 있을 것이다.

Purpose: To develop an interactive version of the conventional process capability-based approach, called 'Interactive Process Capability-Based Approach (IPCA)' in multi-response surface optimization to obtain a satisfactory compromise which incorporates a decision maker(DM)'s preference information precisely. Methods: The proposed IPCA consists of 4 steps. Step 1 is to obtain the estimated process capability indices and initialize the parameters. Step 2 is to maximize the overall process capability index. Step 3 is to evaluate the optimization results. If all the responses are satisfactory, the procedure stops with the most preferred compromise solution. Otherwise, it moves to Step 4. Step 4 is to adjust the preference parameters. The adjustment can be made in two modes: relaxation and tightening. The relaxation is to make the importance of one of the satisfactory responses lower, which is implemented by decreasing its weight. The tightening is to make the importance of one of the unsatisfactory responses higher, which is implemented by increasing its weight. Then, the procedure goes back to Step 2. If there is no response to be adjusted, it stops with the unsatisfactory compromise solution. Results: The proposed IPCA was illustrated through a multi-response surface problem, colloidal gas aphrons problem. The illustration shows that it can generate a satisfactory compromise through an interactive procedure which enables the DM to provide his or her preference information conveniently. Conclusion: The proposed IPCA has two major advantages. One is to obtain a satisfactory compromise which is faithful to the DM preference structure. The other is to make the DM's participation in the interactive procedure easier by using the process capability index in judging satisfaction/unsatisfaction. The process capability index is very familiar with quality practitioners as well as indicates the process performance levels numerically.

Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to empirically investigate the moderating effects of social capital on antecedents factors path of export performance in the materials and components SMEs(Small and Medium-sized Enterprises) of Busan and Kyungnam region. In case of materials and components SMEs, they are always trying to achieve business performance including export sales and market share, but it is difficult for them to increase performance due to the limitation of inner & tangible resources. Therefore intangible asset such as technology capability and its antecedents factors which are technology innovation and learning orientation are getting more important to SMEs. In addition, it is supposed that social capital such as local network including distribution channel in overseas market plays an essential role to enhance export performance. Accordingly, the main goal of this study is to find out the relationship between export performance and antecedents factors and the validity of social capital as a moderating valuable. Research design, data, and methodology - Technology innovation, learning orientation and technology capability have been used as antecedents factors for export performance and social capital such as network diversity and intensity has been used for moderating effects analysis. In order to select these valuables mentioned above, this study examined the existing researches on a basis of Resources Based View, Organizational Learning Theory and Social Capital theory. To achieve the objective of this paper, 7 hypotheses including the moderating effects have been proposed with 6 potential variables measured by 24 questions. The survey was carried out from December 2014 to March 2015 and 137 samples out of total 175 were selected for the analysis. PLS(Partial Least Squares) has been used for the methodology of empirical analysis for both antecedents factors path and moderating effects. Results - Research findings are as follows. First, technology innovation has a significant impact on learning orientation, learning orientation has a positive effect on the technology capability and technology capability also has a significant impact on export performance. Therefore 3 valuables are proved as antecedents factors of export performance. Second, the social capital(both network diversity and intensity) plays a moderating role with learning orientation to technology capability. However, there is no moderating effects between both of social capital and technology capability regarding export performance. Conclusions - According to path analysis results, it is suggested that the materials and components SMEs should raise technology innovation and learning orientation in order to improve technology capability and export performance. Meantime, the moderating effect analysis shows that SMEs should consider local network diversity and intensity along with learning orientation to add up technology capability. But local network diversity and intensity does not work systematically with technology capability for export performance and it means that SMEs should find the appropriate local partners for the purpose of establishing concrete distribution channels based on marketing perspective, not for improving technology capability.

Ship owners now demand a new design approach for the rudder that considers detailed design information such as maneuverability and environmental loads etc. on a quantified basis. In this paper, we developed the concept of a safe operation capability chart for the design of a rudder area. The chart can be used as the basis of design considering the maneuverability and environmental loads. To confirm the applicability of the safe operation capability chart for use as the basis of design, four different rudders are assumed in this work. First, it is determined whether or not it is appropriate to design a rudder by applying a conventional design approach based on IMO maneuvering tests. The proposed concept is reviewed for use as the basis of the design by investigating the effect of rudder area on capability charts that are plotted according to the rudder under various environmental conditions.

It has been gradually increased with the use of resin based membrane forming agent for curing method, which plays a role in protecting moisture evaporation by forming resin membrane at the surface of concrete. In this paper, tests were carried out to examine moisture retention capability of cement mortar applying membrane forming agent. Dosages and types of the membrane forming agent were varied. It is found that sheet curing sealed with the surface of concrete closely has favorable moisture retention capability. However, the application of membrane forming curing method had superiority in moisture retention capability at early stage but at later age, its capability is deteriorated. Hence, further study regarding altering application method was necessary to secure enhanced moisture retention capability.

Purpose - Prior researches have empirically focused on the effect of management consulting quality and consultant capability on entrepreneurial firms' performance. This study, however, focused on investigating the moderating role of absorptive capacity and resource capability between management consulting and entrepreneurial firms' performance. So, this study investigated the relationship among consulting quality, consultant capability, absorptive capacity, resource capability, and entrepreneurial firms' performance from the resource based view (RBV). Especially, this study focused on the mediating role of absorptive and resource capability in relational structure of entrepreneurial firms' dimensions. Research design, data, and methodology - In this study, research hypotheses and model are established by the prior researches from the fields of strategic management and entrepreneurial behavior. Concretely, H1~H4 are the relationship between consulting (consulting quality, consultant capability) and innovation (absorptive capacity, resource capability); H5 is the relationship between absorptive capacity and resource capability; and H6~H7 are the relationship between innovation (absorptive capacity, resource capability) and management performance. The data was collected 207 copies from entrepreneurial firms in South Korea. These firms were established in January 2014 and maintained by November 2015 in high-tech industry. The questionnaire was consisted of five dimensions; consulting quality, consultant capability, absorptive capacity, resource capability, and management performance. Each dimension measured multi items on a 5-point Likert scale. The hypotheses and research model are analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM) with AMOS 22. Results - The results of this study are as follows. 1) Consulting quality significantly influenced on the absorptive capacity of entrepreneurial firms. 2) But, consultant capability did not influence on the absorptive capacity of entrepreneurial firms. 3) Consulting quality and consultant capability significantly influenced on the resource capability of entrepreneurial firms. 4) Absorptive capacity significantly influenced on the resource capability of entrepreneurial firms; 5) Absorptive capacity did not significantly influence on the management performance of entrepreneurial firms. 6) Resource capability, however, significantly influenced on the management performance of entrepreneurial firms. By these results, absorptive capacity of entrepreneurial firms had a mediating role partly among consulting quality, consultant capability, and management capability. The resource capability of entrepreneurial firms had a mediating role among consulting quality, consultant capability, and management capability, perfectly. Conclusions - According to this study, the high level of consulting quality and consultant capability may enforce the resource capability of entrepreneurial firms. It means, practically, that external knowledge is a driver for innovation, and then the innovation effects on the management performance of entrepreneurial firms. So, at the initial stage, the management consulting programs are very important to entrepreneurial firms and should be conceived as an essential element. This study may contribute to the advancement of academic in field of new start business, small business, or venture business based on resources, especially the role of absorptive capacity and resource capability between consulting programs and management performance. However, this study has some limitations. They are the measurement of consulting quality's items, cross-sectional research, and the limitation of concept and industry.
