As the market of express delivery services expands rapidly, delivery service companies are exposed to severe competition. As a result of the surplus of delivery companies, they are struggling with remaining competitive at a reasonable price with appropriate level of customer satisfaction. To cope with competition pressures, a strategic alliance is suggested as an effective solution to the challenges faced by small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in express delivery services. Therefore, this study suggests a combined optimization and simulation approach to the reconfiguration of an express delivery service network for strategic alliance with respect to strategy partnership of closing/keeping service centers among companies involved and adjustments of their cutoff times. An illustrative numerical example is presented to demonstrate the practicality and efficiency of the approach.

Previous studies on strategic alliance formation have largely overlooked the effects that organizations' routine development can have on the relationship between organizations' network position and their alliance ambidexterity strategy. This study extends ambidexterity research by adding internal and network perspectives and examining their cumulative effects on alliance ambidexterity. We first acknowledge the interplay between organizations' internal knowledge exploration/exploitation strategies and organizations' alliance ambidexterity and determine that organizations with a high level of internal knowledge breadth are more likely to make focused alliance decisions. Second, our analysis of 145 US-based information technology organizations with an active alliance behavior reveals that having well-formed routines as a result of previous collaborations strengthens the tendency of brokerage organizations to follow alliances that focus on either exploration or exploitation. Although most alliance studies have commonly argued in favor of an ambidextrous approach, this study provides critical evidence that both internal knowledge exploration/exploitation strategies and development of routines constrain organizations' alliance formation decisions, guiding them towards a more focused approach.

In this research, we have investigated the impact of servitization on firm value focused on Fortune 500 company's alliance announcement. The Firms are categorized to understand the impact of servitization and productization. The data includes Fortune 500 companies (2009, USA). Samples used for the hypothesis tests consist of 1,057 American companies that are opened on NYSE and NASDAQ, for the years 1990 through 2010. We test four research hypotheses based upon the various theoretical perspectives in servitization. The market is selective in reacting to alliance category; service company ${\rightarrow}$ manufacturing company, service company ${\rightarrow}$ service company. The findings show that alliance is significant between service company and manufacturing company. Also, the result shows significant relationship inter-service company's alliance. We have a significant relationship between company's alliance announcement and the market value of firms and shows significant AR in financial performance. Finally, this study presents implications for manufacturing companies that pursue service-led expansion as a strategic approach and are seeking to improve market value through alliance, partnership and cooperation. Continual effort must be placed to sustain market value of the firms.

본 연구의 목적은 개방형 정보 혁신을 기술 흡수형 혁신과 기술 활용형 혁신으로 나누어 전략적 제휴 요인과 통합하여 수출성과에 미치는 영향을 분석하는데 있다. 본 연구는 구조방정식모형의 PLS(Partial Least Square)를 사용하여 개방형정보 혁신과 전략적 제휴, 수출성과의 관계에서 조직문화의 조절효과를 설정한 6개의 가설을 201개 표본으로 실증분석 했다. 분석 결과 개방형 정보 혁신 중 기술 흡수형 혁신은 전략적 제휴에 영향을 미치지 못했다. 반면 기술활용형 혁신은 전략적 제휴에 긍정적 영향을 주었다. 전략적 제휴는 또한 수출성과에 긍정적 영향이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 조절효과 분석 결과 조직문화와 기술 흡수형 혁신의 상호작용은 전략적 제휴에 긍정적 영향을 주었다. 또한, 조직문화와 기술 활용형 혁신의 조절효과도 전략적 제휴에 유의한 영향을 보였다. 그러나 조직문화와 전략적 제휴의 조절효과는 수출성과에 영향을 미치지 못하였다. 본 연구는 조직문화의 조절효과를 분석한 점에서 기여도가 있다. 향후에는 개방형 정보 혁신과 외부요인의 통합분석이 필요하다.

Strategic alliance between corporations is essential to build a CALS system. Specially, companies cooperate one another to accomplish the shared environment in the system. During the construction of the CALS system, we can apply the concepts of ILS and SCM to develop the breadth and depth of shared environment between firms. In order to build such intended environment in the CALS system, we propose five dimensions with 30 variables to be considered. These dimensions are Information Sharing, Task Sharing, System Sharing, Parts and Facilities Sharing, and Institution Sharing. Structured interviews were peformed to measure the degree of shared environment designed in 7 CALS pilot systems in Korea. The results show that the level of the shared environment in the context of vertical relationships between firms in the CALS systems is fairly high. In contrast, the level of the sharing between competing companies in horizontal relationships is relatively low in most of the pilot systems.
