Abstract

Supply chain (SC) strategies will influence corporate performance and customer satisfaction. However, few empirical research has investigated the impact of the gap between prescriptive and current strategy on customer satisfaction. Based on the profile analysis with data from 31 products, the results of this study show the significant relationship between customer satisfaction and the fit between SC context and speculation-postponement strategies. The results imply that different SC strategies should be applied in accordance with product attributes and supply environments.

기업의 SCM 전략은 기업의 성과 및 고객 만족에 영향을 미치게 된다. 따라서 기업은 제품의 특성에 적합한 SCM 전략을 선택하는 것이 필요하다. 국내 연구에서는 기업이 선택한 전략과 해당 제품의 규범적 전략 사이의 적합성에 대한 실증적 연구가 미흡하다. 따라서 본 연구는 공급체인에서의 일반적인 순연(Postponement)전략과 투기(Speculation)전략을 결정하는 요인에 대한 프로파일 분석을 통해서, 국내 종합 전자산업의 31개 제품에 대하여 규범적인 전략(TO-BE)과 채택한 전략(AS-IS)간의 어떠한 차이가 있는지를 연구하였다. 그 결과, 총 31개 제품 중에서 규범적 전략과 채택된 전략이 일치하는 6개 제품, 불일치하는 10개의 제품이 구분되었다. 연구 결과에 의하면, 규범적 전략과 일치하는 전략을 채택한 경우 고객의 만족도가 높았고 구매 전 만족도 대비 구매 이후 만족도가 더 높은 결과를 나타냈다. 이는 각 기업이 제품별 특성 및 공급체인 환경에 맞는 공급체인 운영전략을 구사하여야 함을 강하게 시사하고 있는 것이다.
