Recently, with increasing interest in the subject of interfirm relationship mechanism, some information systems researchers point out that existing outsourcing theories are limited in explaining the choice of governance mechanisms in interfirm relational exchanges. Recognizing the importance of trust-commitment, this study focuses on the relationship of between control mechanism and commitment. Especially the role of trust as mediator is mainly researched. A mediation model was suggested on the basis of theoretical linkages from prior relevant studies. The research model was empirically tested with 73 IS outsourcing projects. The findings have significant impactions for further research and practice. Findings are as follows: First, outcome control, process control, social control had positive effects on trust and commitment. Second, inter-organizational trust played as a partial mediator on the relationship between control mechanisms and commitment. Based on these findings, the implication and the limitation of the study were presented including some directions for future studies.

Despite the growing emphasis on the importance of knowledge exchange among supply chain participants, few companies have fully exploited the knowledge resources held by their supply chain partners. Among many reasons for this phenomenon, recent literature on inter-firm knowledge exchange identifies knowledge complementarities between the supply channel partners as an important determinant of knowledge exchange. Firms participating in a supply chain are likely to exchange partners' complementary knowledge. In order to extract value from them, it is important to recognize the difference between the potential value and the implementation of this potential value. However, the literature fails to distinguish between potential knowledge complementarities and implemented knowledge complementarities. In order to realize the value of potential knowledge complementarities, knowledge should be exchanged and effectively integrated in the supply channel. Further, investigating inter-firm knowledge exchange from both partners' perspectives is important especially when there are interdependencies between the channel partners. The purpose of this research is to investigate the impact of potential knowledge complementarities on knowledge exchange in buyer-supplier relationships by looking at both partners' perspectives. This research also includes trust in partner's competence and inter-organizational information systems (IOIS) as they are relevant when the complementary knowledge flows between organizations. The data required for this field study was collected from 70 buyers and their suppliers in three multinational enterprises in two different industries (Automobile manufacturing and Telecommunication services) headquartered in Korea. The results indicate that potential knowledge complementarities between buyer and supplier do not directly influence knowledge exchange, but indirectly through trust in partner's competence. And the results indicate that competence-based trust and IOIS have direct effects on knowledge exchange. Empirical results also show that IOIS moderates the relationship between potential knowledge complementarities and knowledge exchange. This study is a first attempt to empirically verify the theoretical model about potential knowledge complementarities and to investigate the impact of potential knowledge complementarities on interfirm knowledge exchange. From a theoretical perspective, this study not only clarifies the distinction between potential knowledge complementarities and implemented knowledge complementarities, but also develops an instrument to measure the concept of potential knowledge complementarities in the context of operational and planning knowledge in a supply chain. Further, we develop a theoretical framework suggesting that potential knowledge complementarities of partners in a supply chain affect knowledge exchange directly and indirectly through competence-based trust. The findings from this study have some managerial implications for practicing managers as well. First, buyers should search for suppliers that have potential complementary knowledge, which can be integrated to create synergy through interfirm knowledge exchange. Furthermore, firms must develop mechanisms to identify potential complementary knowledge of partners. Second, firms should continue their endeavor to develop their own unique knowledge so that their knowledge can benefit the entire supply channel. Finally, trust among supply chain partners turns out to be an important factor for interfirm knowledge exchange. Therefore, effective management for engendering trustworthy buyer-supplier relationships should receive appropriate attention from managers.

복잡다단한 프로젝트 기반의 공급망관리는 여러 협력업체와의 지속적인 통합노력이 요구된다. 본 연구의 목적은 프로젝트 공급망에 참여한 바 있는 협력업체들의 성과를 최종적인 종속요인으로 설정하고, 기업 간 협력과 갈등, 신뢰와 관계적 규범 등과 같은 주요 선행요인 간의 상호연관관계를 분석하는데 있다. 프로젝트 공급망 참여기업으로부터 조사한 설문데이타를 토대로 분석한 결과, 기업간 협력과 갈등은 성과에 영향을 미치며, 기업 간에 인지되는 신뢰는 협력과 갈등관계에 영향을 미친다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 다만 관계적 규범은 협력관계에는 영향을 미치지만 갈등해소에는 유의한 영향을 미치지 못한다는 통계적 결과가 도출되었다. 본 연구의 분석결과가 프로젝트 기반의 공급망 운영에 관한 의미있는 시사점을 제시해 줄 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

본 연구는 공급사슬의 네트워크 내재성의 관점에서 관계적 내재성을 중심으로 공급사슬과 성과와의 관계를 살펴보고자 한다. 이를 위해 관계적 내재성을 상호작용, 연계강도, 신뢰 그리고 상호의존성으로 제시하고 이들이 공급사슬의 기업관계 성과에 미치는 영향을 알아보았다. 이후 기업관계성과가 재무적 성과에 어떠한 영향을 미치는가를 살펴봄으로써 공급사슬 하에서 관계적 내재성과 성과와의 관계를 밝히는 것을 목적으로 한다. 가설검증결과 공급사슬의 관계적 내재성은 전반적으로 공급사슬의 성과에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 공급사슬의 관계적 내재성 가운데에서도 특히 상호의존성과 신뢰, 그리고 연계강도가 높을수록 기업관계성과에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났는데, 이는 네트워크의 관계적 내재성이 높을수록 네트워크 내 구성원들 간의 관계성과가 높아진다는 기존의 연구와 일치함을 알아볼 수 있었다. 또한 공급사슬의 기업관계성과가 높으면 높을수록 공급사슬의 재무적 성과에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타나 네트워크의 관계적 성과차원의 개선이 실제로 기업의 재무적 성과차원에도 크게 기여하는 것으로 나타났다.

The rapid development and diversification of technology require that firms should adjust and cope with a high degree of uncertainty. An alternative to these strategic responses is the recent increase in the number of R&D or technological collaborations among firms. There have been continuous researches into the causes and effects of these collaborative relationships, but there is a lack of research that examines the risks involved in the process of collaboration. The researches into essential prerequisites for a successful technological collaboration have remained at the superficial level despite the surge in demand of R&D collaboration. Therefore, this study proposes positive & negative factors affecting the R&D collaboration process and selection point. In addition, a further step in analysis is taken by integrating both the positive & negative factors. This study emphasizes the importance of inter-trust in activating the process factors within the success factors and reducing the possibility of risk factors.

Purpose - An appreciable number of small- and medium-sized exporters have continuously succeeded in their export marketplaces even though they do not possess enough resources. Advocating that affiliation with an export service-provider plays an important role in this phenomenon, we aimed to theoretically explain how export service providers' competences and relational factors drive small- and medium-sized exporters' competitive advantages in the long-run. Design/methodology - Drawing prominently on the resource-based view and the relationship-marketing theory, we built an empirically testable model. The model showed the roles of exporter capabilities, export service-provider competences, and relational factors on small- and medium-sized exporters' sustainable competitive advantages. Findings - The results of our research showed that exporter production and branding capabilities positively influenced their sustainable competitive advantage. In addition, export service-providers' marketing competence and relationship-building competence positively moderated the effects of exporter capabilities on their parties' sustainable competitive advantages. Finally, affiliation parties' interfirm trust and relationship commitment positively moderated the effects of export service-provider competence on the relationship between exporter capabilities and sustainable competitive advantages. Originality/value - Although prior studies have highlighted the effects of an exporter's resources on export performance, our research filled a knowledge gap of the effects of other resources on export performance. First, we proposed two types of export service-provider, competence marketing and relationship-building, influencing exporters' competitive advantage. Second, the effects of relational factors were proposed in the context of export affiliations.
